Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 23.75 – 29.91 | 24.51 – 29.61 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 30.25 – 40.91 | 30.55 – 40.37 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | 14.29 – 22.87 | 16.49 – 22.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 456.5 – 3010.18 | 491.66 – 2783.44 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 47.9 – 148.92 | 53.4 – 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 | % | 10.33 – 33.54 | 14.18 – 31.1 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 4.25 – 28.91 | 5.8 – 25.3 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.36 – 11.22 | 0.4 – 5.05 |
| pH | — | 4.9 – 6.8 | 4.97 – 6.4 |
| Sand | % | 32.52 – 77.8 | 38.92 – 68.65 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 3.86 – 90.21 | 5 – 53.1 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
