Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 5.03 – 27.91 | 11.51 – 27.79 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 10.21 – 35.05 | 15.73 – 34.63 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -1.33 – 23.49 | 6.43 – 22.85 |
| Annual precipitation | 590.94 – 4768.34 | 1115.74 – 4104.66 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 14.22 – 85.74 | 15.72 – 78.88 |
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 – 32.09 | 9.18 – 25.27 |
| Clay | % | 19.36 – 43.88 | 23.77 – 37.35 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 1.01 – 22.97 | 2.1 – 17.8 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 1.19 – 6.91 | 1.4 – 4.59 |
| pH | — | 4 – 7.09 | 4.1 – 6.1 |
| Sand | % | 15.39 – 59.2 | 30.9 – 52.1 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 14.35 – 126.67 | 16.8 – 81.6 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
