Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 16.05 – 29.91 | 17.07 – 29.61 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 21.01 – 40.91 | 22.45 – 40.37 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 9.17 – 22.87 | 9.97 – 22.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 34.84 – 4226.84 | 64.48 – 3812.24 |
| 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 | 23.8 – 29.99 | 25.5 – 27.65 |
| Clay | % | 34.61 – 61.24 | 40.9 – 56 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 3.3 – 9.4 | 4.2 – 7.65 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 4.48 – 5.39 | 4.69 – 5.07 |
| pH | — | 4.7 – 5.2 | 4.8 – 5 |
| Sand | % | 14.6 – 30.2 | 21.7 – 25.7 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 40.22 – 73.55 | 50.2 – 64.2 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
