The herbage and seeds of these grasses are food for herbivores , such as the chestnut-breasted mannikin ( Lonchura castaneothorax ), the caterpillar of ...
The grass creeps along the ground with its stolons, and roots wherever a node touches the ground, forming a dense mat. C. dactylon reproduces through seeds, stolons , and rhizomes . Growth begins at temperatures above 15 °C (59 °F) with optimum growth between 24 and 37 °C (75 and 99 °F); in winter or in the dry season, the grass becomes ...

Electrokinetic remediation, also termed electrokinetics, is a technique of using direct electric current to remove organic, inorganic and heavy metal particles from the soil by electric potential. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The use of this technique provides an approach with minimum disturbance to the surface while treating subsurface contaminants .
The optimal soil conditions for marram grass is a soil pH from 4.5 to 9.0, soil temperatures from 10–40 °C (50–104 °F), [17] and salt concentrations of no more than 1.0-1.5%. [18] Marram grass can also be found on alkaline soils with a high pH of around 9.1 and also acidic soils with pH less than 4.5.
