Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 11.43 – 30.73 | 15.75 – 29.73 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 20.23 – 44.91 | 21.85 – 43.95 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -8.93 – 22.89 | -2.87 – 22.39 |
| Annual precipitation | 1.24 – 4960.86 | 1.72 – 4736.7 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 45.7 – 197.44 | 50.9 – 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 | 8.1 – 21.5 | 9.9 – 10.6 |
| Clay | % | 14.1 – 27.5 | 15.2 – 20.4 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 9.76 – 41.36 | 11.8 – 38.9 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.34 – 1.95 | 0.59 – 0.82 |
| pH | — | 6.5 – 7.7 | 6.5 – 6.9 |
| Sand | % | 47.82 – 79.1 | 63.6 – 68.3 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 3.5 – 11.64 | 5.2 – 6.4 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
