Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 5.03 – 28.47 | 11.51 – 27.87 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 10.21 – 39.87 | 15.73 – 38.67 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -1.33 – 24.43 | 3.63 – 24.35 |
| Annual precipitation | 130.7 – 5806.72 | 152.54 – 5214.22 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 14.22 – 116.32 | 15.72 – 110.54 |
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 | 6.51 – 42.09 | 8.07 – 38.5 |
| Clay | % | 2.4 – 60.95 | 3.42 – 52.45 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 0.2 – 27.38 | 0.3 – 22.7 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.35 – 18.69 | 0.64 – 13.82 |
| pH | — | 4.5 – 7 | 5 – 6 |
| Sand | % | 11.18 – 94.33 | 15.8 – 91.22 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 2.8 – 154 | 4.5 – 141.7 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
