Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 11.23 – 26.75 | 12.37 – 26.65 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 15.37 – 31.85 | 16.27 – 30.73 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 6.93 – 25.17 | 8.19 – 24.57 |
| Annual precipitation | 1463.2 – 5884.7 | 1507.3 – 4805.3 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 7.1 – 102.94 | 7.64 – 95.32 |
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 | 23.75 – 35 | 33.3 – 34.75 |
| Clay | % | 39.63 – 42.48 | 40.55 – 41.5 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 7.9 – 11.48 | 8.25 – 10.4 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 2.7 – 3.16 | 2.78 – 3.01 |
| pH | — | 4 – 6.5 | 4.5 – 5.5 |
| Sand | % | 24.17 – 29.03 | 25.5 – 25.6 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 42.4 – 55.39 | 43.75 – 51.4 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
