Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 22.45 – 29.91 | 23.29 – 29.61 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 29.23 – 43.85 | 30.25 – 41.99 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 8.93 – 22.87 | 9.53 – 22.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 28.02 – 3643.82 | 32.4 – 2783.44 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 30.22 – 153.8 | 33.52 – 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 | 5.53 – 39.86 | 6.4 – 28.9 |
| Clay | % | 10.12 – 42.97 | 14.18 – 36.75 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 1.4 – 28.91 | 2.2 – 25.3 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.32 – 11.22 | 0.4 – 5.05 |
| pH | — | 4.7 – 8.2 | 4.78 – 8.1 |
| Sand | % | 32.52 – 82.09 | 38.92 – 68.65 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 2.8 – 90.21 | 3.2 – 53.1 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
