Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 16.43 – 28.71 | 18.65 – 28.17 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 20.23 – 38.79 | 21.85 – 37.95 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 13.51 – 22.89 | 16.09 – 22.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 694.24 – 4960.86 | 982.12 – 4736.7 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 30.22 – 118.58 | 33.52 – 109.72 |
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 | 8.16 – 19.91 | 10.88 – 14.6 |
| Clay | % | 23.91 – 37.02 | 27.9 – 29.7 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 18.89 – 31.42 | 26.9 – 29.85 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 1.08 – 2.1 | 1.21 – 1.36 |
| pH | — | 4.8 – 5.24 | 4.9 – 4.9 |
| Sand | % | 42.79 – 60.65 | 53.88 – 56.17 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 16.01 – 28.28 | 18.3 – 22.88 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
