Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 15.31 – 30.45 | 17.47 – 29.73 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 22.91 – 40.75 | 25.01 – 40.33 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 5.11 – 21.65 | 5.77 – 21.15 |
| Annual precipitation | 25.62 – 1881.56 | 95.22 – 1848.56 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 22.7 – 151.62 | 27.5 – 133.5 |
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 | 4.61 – 41.99 | 5.5 – 35.67 |
| Clay | % | 5.21 – 45.91 | 7.97 – 38.42 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 0.7 – 33.99 | 1.48 – 29.7 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.43 – 3.5 | 0.49 – 2.1 |
| pH | — | 4.5 – 8.88 | 4.8 – 8.7 |
| Sand | % | 20.91 – 88.73 | 29.1 – 84.1 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 2.8 – 44.24 | 3.35 – 25.6 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
