Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 7.01 – 29.17 | 8.81 – 28.79 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 18.51 – 41.31 | 19.71 – 41.25 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -7.67 – 21.65 | -4.61 – 21.15 |
| Annual precipitation | 9.08 – 3643.82 | 13.28 – 1926.5 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 22.7 – 197.44 | 27.5 – 184.48 |
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 | 11.99 – 23.3 | 15 – 19.65 |
| Clay | % | 16.1 – 36.62 | 20.35 – 27.7 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 2.7 – 12.41 | 4.1 – 7.55 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.73 – 2.31 | 1 – 1.56 |
| pH | — | 5.5 – 7.4 | 5.9 – 6.4 |
| Sand | % | 40.25 – 70.41 | 53.3 – 67 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 6.68 – 29.71 | 9.8 – 20.48 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
