Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 16.31 – 29.91 | 18.23 – 29.61 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 20.23 – 43.85 | 21.85 – 41.99 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 9.17 – 22.89 | 9.97 – 22.39 |
| 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 | 6.67 – 21.58 | 9.85 – 15.65 |
| Clay | % | 14.97 – 45.88 | 20.77 – 31.77 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 2.81 – 26.57 | 9.25 – 16.95 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.69 – 3.11 | 0.96 – 2.44 |
| pH | — | 4.7 – 6.2 | 5.2 – 6 |
| Sand | % | 33.94 – 67.64 | 42.92 – 60 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 9.65 – 42.74 | 12.45 – 33.17 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
