Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 7.01 – 30.73 | 8.81 – 29.73 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 18.51 – 44.05 | 19.71 – 43.69 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -7.67 – 22.89 | -4.61 – 21.99 |
| Annual precipitation | 9.08 – 4960.86 | 13.28 – 4736.7 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 22.7 – 197.44 | 27.5 – 184.48 |
These values describe the documented climate envelope of the taxon. They are not, by themselves, a local recommendation.
Documented soil preferences
| Variable | Unit | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cation exchange capacity (CEC) | cmol(+)/kg | 15.69 – 30.45 | 23.8 – 27.9 |
| Clay | % | 20.66 – 35.25 | 28.9 – 31.1 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 9.63 – 25.12 | 11.18 – 15.65 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 1.16 – 3.08 | 2.38 – 2.79 |
| pH | — | 5.7 – 8.06 | 5.85 – 6.1 |
| Sand | % | 34.55 – 47.6 | 35.33 – 40.52 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 8.46 – 43.87 | 28.52 – 38.55 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
