Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | -1.81 – 16.53 | 0.05 – 15.33 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 11.95 – 33.21 | 13.27 – 31.95 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -14.97 – 3.03 | -14.23 – 2.67 |
| Annual precipitation | 380.6 – 3652.64 | 444.26 – 2625.26 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 10.02 – 54.46 | 10.92 – 50.2 |
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 | 17.83 – 31.6 | 22.5 – 28.2 |
| Clay | % | 19.76 – 36.46 | 20.35 – 32.55 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 9.14 – 19.45 | 10.1 – 14.1 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.89 – 4.02 | 1.68 – 3.1 |
| pH | — | 6.2 – 8.18 | 6.4 – 7.6 |
| Sand | % | 17.37 – 43 | 23.9 – 37.75 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 4.8 – 64.5 | 17.7 – 40.6 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
