🌊 Eutrophication: Nutrient Loading & Lake Collapse (2D)

Canvas2D lake eutrophication simulator: tune agricultural nutrient runoff and water temperature to watch algae bloom, dissolved oxygen crash and fish population collapse in real time.

Drag the nutrient input rate up and watch a lake tip from clear to algae-choked: nutrient-driven algae growth pulls dissolved oxygen down as dead algae decompose, and fish die off once oxygen drops below the hypoxia threshold. Adjust water temperature and see the whole cascade play out live on the time-series graph.
