Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 15.31 – 30.45 | 16.75 – 29.73 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 21.01 – 40.75 | 22.45 – 40.33 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 3.19 – 22.09 | 3.43 – 21.37 |
| Annual precipitation | 34.84 – 1881.56 | 53.98 – 1848.56 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 22.7 – 180.92 | 27.5 – 165.44 |
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 | 8.17 – 41.35 | 12.8 – 25.55 |
| Clay | % | 15.42 – 44.93 | 24.35 – 36.2 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 3.41 – 16.08 | 5.3 – 10.05 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.88 – 2.69 | 1.18 – 1.89 |
| pH | — | 5.4 – 7.59 | 5.8 – 6.5 |
| Sand | % | 20.61 – 69.88 | 38.75 – 57.75 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 10.91 – 37.38 | 14.28 – 25.02 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
