Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 11.23 – 28.39 | 12.37 – 27.59 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 15.37 – 40.85 | 16.27 – 39.89 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 6.93 – 25.85 | 8.19 – 25.85 |
| Annual precipitation | 464.26 – 5677.46 | 586.18 – 4109.48 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 12.34 – 140.54 | 13.9 – 128.36 |
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 | 5.47 – 18.25 | 9.6 – 16.02 |
| Clay | % | 16.62 – 33.85 | 22.32 – 30.23 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 4.42 – 12.07 | 6 – 9.25 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.74 – 2.09 | 0.99 – 1.75 |
| pH | — | 5.35 – 6.4 | 5.5 – 6.03 |
| Sand | % | 40.98 – 66.78 | 48.1 – 61.17 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 13.55 – 35.67 | 15.8 – 26.62 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
