Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | -1.63 – 24.41 | 1.85 – 23.87 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 17.65 – 41.65 | 21.25 – 38.67 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -18.63 – 12.31 | -15.93 – 10.03 |
| Annual precipitation | 130.7 – 1312.88 | 152.54 – 832.7 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 12.48 – 116.32 | 18.94 – 103.72 |
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 | 5.86 – 17.34 | 8 – 12.5 |
| Clay | % | 11.15 – 27.14 | 15.7 – 21.2 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 3.01 – 19.89 | 7.15 – 16 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.39 – 1.37 | 0.5 – 0.89 |
| pH | — | 7.5 – 8.5 | 8 – 8.3 |
| Sand | % | 36.11 – 68.53 | 50.27 – 62.83 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 3.44 – 13.46 | 4.5 – 8.2 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
