Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 10.97 – 20.09 | 11.17 – 19.69 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 26.71 – 34.89 | 28.01 – 34.59 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -7.21 – 7.01 | -7.15 – 6.83 |
| Annual precipitation | 456.14 – 1915.64 | 557.48 – 1788.38 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 8.76 – 54.8 | 10.76 – 54.5 |
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 | 7.07 – 26.2 | 9.2 – 16.2 |
| Clay | % | 12.59 – 34.87 | 16.25 – 24.95 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 0.3 – 10.56 | 0.5 – 5.7 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.98 – 2.54 | 1.09 – 1.59 |
| pH | — | 6 – 7.5 | — – — |
| Sand | % | 11.65 – 57.78 | 16.9 – 40.35 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 10.37 – 31.32 | 13.45 – 17 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
