Decomposition: Microbial Succession Timeline (2D)

A simplified real population model of decomposer succession: a stacked chart of aerobic bacteria, anaerobic bacteria and fungi rising and falling over time next to a decaying-matter visual, driven by temperature, moisture, nutrient and aeration sliders.

A simplified real model of the same decomposer succession as the 3D version — a stacked population-over-time chart of aerobic bacteria, anaerobic bacteria and fungi next to a simple decaying-matter visual that shrinks and changes color as nutrient is consumed, both driven by the same temperature, moisture, nutrient and aeration controls, with a pannable, zoomable timeline.
