Variable	Observed range	Central range
Annual mean temperature	13.41 – 23.25	15.93 – 23.25
Temperature of the warmest month	25.19 – 34.71	26.51 – 34.05
Temperature of the coldest month	1.05 – 15.57	2.01 – 13.77
Annual precipitation	25.62 – 1572.48	95.22 – 1387.38
Precipitation seasonality	27.28 – 120.44	41.44 – 119.12

These values describe the documented climate envelope of the taxon. They are not, by themselves, a local recommendation.

Variable	Unit	Observed range	Central range
Cation exchange capacity (CEC)	cmol(+)/kg	6 – 11.6	8.8 – 10.9
Clay	%	11 – 17.4	14.8 – 16.7
Coarse fragments	%	3.9 – 11.3	5.2 – 11
Total nitrogen	g/kg	0.45 – 0.68	0.49 – 0.57
