Seed Bank Pulse: Disturbance & Germination Simulator

A grid-based model of the mechanism that lets forests and grasslands recover after fire, logging or storm damage: a soil seed bank of dormant, slowly-decaying seeds that stays invisible under an intact canopy and germinates in a sudden pulse the moment a disturbance opens a light gap. Trigger disturbances of different radius and severity, watch the canopy pillars collapse and the pale seed-bank dots drain as seedlings establish, and read live averages of seed density, canopy cover and germination flux across the plot as the seed-rain loop slowly refills the bank for the next cycle.
