Description
SEE ISSUE #21
**Large Cw feasibility increases in the sub-boreal (e.g., SBSmk1)**
• Driven by increasing temperatures and increasing precipitation (especially in spring and autumn)
• Ensemble is neutral to increasing precipitation
• Analogs are primarily ICHmw(2,3,5) and ICHdw4
• These are climates of the western Columbia mountains from Castlegar to Clearwater.
• Visualization in BGC3D indicates that these appear to be reasonable analogs
Will’s notes
• Cw doing ok in the SBSwk1
• Removing cold constraints and sufficient precipitation.
• Frost pooling likely a hazard. This would be a footnote. Across the board for any of these temperate species
• Recommend warm aspects, frost draining, in order to establish in current transitional climate.

Neutral/increasing summer precipitation, with greater increases in precipitation in spring and autumn.



**E.g. SBSmk1**

Research direction
Start by reading the referenced issue #21, then review the SBSmk1 evidence and the attached climate visualizations. The issue does not identify files, tests, or an implementation entry point; completion would require deciding and documenting the scope of Cw expansion and its constraints for the sub-boreal.
