Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 16.43 – 29.91 | 18.65 – 29.61 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 20.23 – 40.91 | 21.85 – 40.37 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 13.51 – 22.89 | 16.09 – 22.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 456.5 – 4960.86 | 491.66 – 4736.7 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 22.7 – 148.92 | 27.5 – 146.52 |
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 | 5.3 – 39.86 | 6.4 – 28.9 |
| Clay | % | 10.33 – 46.76 | 14.18 – 43.52 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 0.7 – 28.91 | 1.6 – 25.3 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.36 – 11.22 | 0.4 – 5.05 |
| pH | — | 4.4 – 6.8 | 4.5 – 6.4 |
| Sand | % | 31.92 – 77.8 | 35.7 – 68.65 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 3.86 – 96.43 | 5 – 71.05 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
