Pollinator Network Robustness

Real plant-pollinator webs are not random — they are nested: a core of generalist bees and hoverflies visits nearly every flower, while specialist pollinators depend almost entirely on that same generalist core. This simulator builds a nested bipartite network in 3D, lets you tune species count and nestedness, then removes species one at a time under three different strategies — random loss, generalists-first, or specialists-first — propagating secondary co-extinctions through the survivors exactly as ecologists model real pollinator decline. Live readouts track connectance, an NODF-style nestedness score, and the network's overall robustness to species loss.
