🌍 Global Carbon Cycle: 2D Tank Model

Interactive 2D tank-and-pipe model of the global carbon cycle: six reservoirs (atmosphere, vegetation, soil, surface and deep ocean, fossil fuels) linked by ten animated fluxes, with a live CO2, temperature and net-sink graph driven by the same box-model equations as the full 3D simulation.
