Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 18.93 – 29.17 | 19.53 – 28.79 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 27.53 – 41.69 | 28.01 – 41.25 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 6.59 – 22.87 | 8.03 – 22.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 8.48 – 4226.84 | 13.28 – 3812.24 |
| 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 | 4.61 – 39.86 | 6 – 28.9 |
| Clay | % | 12.31 – 48.68 | 15.55 – 43.52 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 0.7 – 30.98 | 1.48 – 24.02 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.39 – 11.22 | 0.45 – 5.05 |
| pH | — | 4.4 – 8.38 | 4.5 – 8.3 |
| Sand | % | 21.16 – 82.56 | 36.65 – 77.42 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 3.1 – 90.21 | 3.5 – 53.1 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
