🌊 Marine Microplastic Monitoring Simulator (2D)
A top-down Canvas2D companion to the 3D net-tow sim: capture drifting microplastic particles and see how mesh size, current and tow speed change what the net actually catches. ⇄ 3D version
⚙ Under the hood
The net's vertical sweep, particle drift and mesh-size cutoff use the same retained/eligible formulas as the 3D version, redrawn as a 2D side-on cross-section of the water column with a collection vial alongside it.
