Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 15.31 – 29.17 | 17.07 – 28.63 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 21.01 – 40.33 | 22.45 – 39.61 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 8.03 – 22.05 | 8.11 – 21.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 34.84 – 2252.88 | 64.48 – 1857.42 |
| 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 | 20.16 – 29.4 | 21.85 – 27.1 |
| Clay | % | 32.77 – 47.2 | 33.5 – 37.05 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 2.9 – 11.79 | 6.45 – 9.2 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 2.29 – 4.92 | 2.45 – 3.01 |
| pH | — | 4.7 – 6.02 | 5.6 – 5.75 |
| Sand | % | 27.1 – 37.21 | 34.05 – 36 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 28.04 – 60.2 | 34.4 – 46.55 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
