Documented climate envelope
| Variable | Observed range | Central range |
|---|---|---|
| Annual mean temperature | 13.41 – 25.57 | 14.77 – 25.09 |
| Temperature of the warmest month | 24.23 – 34.87 | 25.31 – 34.21 |
| Temperature of the coldest month | -0.91 – 16.71 | -0.01 – 15.63 |
| Annual precipitation | 162.6 – 1652.58 | 185.22 – 1410.3 |
| Precipitation seasonality | 27.28 – 123.14 | 41.44 – 110.6 |
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 | 7.32 – 24.84 | 8.35 – 21.9 |
| Clay | % | 13.61 – 41.98 | 16.85 – 37.23 |
| Coarse fragments | % | 1.21 – 24.7 | 2.15 – 15.25 |
| Total nitrogen | g/kg | 0.47 – 2.15 | 0.53 – 1.96 |
| pH | — | 5.3 – 8.19 | 5.4 – 8 |
| Sand | % | 35.83 – 77.11 | 42.12 – 70.7 |
| Soil organic carbon | g/kg | 4 – 30.99 | 4.78 – 23.8 |
These soil preferences should be compared with the site profile and the confidence of the local data.
