Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | -2.57 – 30.73 | 0.73 – 29.73 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 17.53 – 45.51 | 20.23 – 45.27 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -22.23 – 22.23 | -19.89 – 21.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 1.24 – 1858.06 | 1.72 – 1480.78 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 30 – 197.44 | 30.06 – 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 | 11.53 – 19.02 | 15.7 – 17.98 |
| Clay | % | 16.5 – 30.05 | 21.12 – 29.48 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 8.6 – 19.32 | 10.47 – 14.12 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.58 – 1.13 | 0.81 – 0.96 |
| pH | — | 7.9 – 8.1 | 7.97 – 8 |
| Sand | % | 32.77 – 52.65 | 33.95 – 45.83 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 2.91 – 5.8 | 3.25 – 4.75 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
