Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 13.41 – 30.45 | 14.77 – 29.73 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 20.23 – 44.05 | 21.85 – 43.45 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -0.91 – 22.89 | -0.01 – 22.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 34.84 – 4960.86 | 64.48 – 4736.7 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 22.7 – 180.92 | 27.5 – 165.44 |
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 | 18.5 – 25.8 | 20.3 – 23.73 |
| Clay | % | 28 – 39.03 | 31.6 – 36.9 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 5.2 – 14 | 6.4 – 10.6 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 2.42 – 4.83 | 2.73 – 4.13 |
| pH | — | 5.1 – 5.9 | 5.4 – 5.6 |
| Sand | % | 32.2 – 41 | 34.62 – 38.12 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 28.5 – 62.8 | 35.8 – 54.6 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
