Ocean Acidification & Coral Bleaching in La Parguera

Explore how changes to the atmosphere (increased CO₂) create destructive feedback loops in the hydrosphere and biosphere. Adjust global carbon emission rates and watch the chemical equilibrium of the ocean shift, leading to macroscopic effects like coral bleaching due to lowered ocean pH and rising temperatures.

Simulation Controls

Adjust the rate of carbon emissions into the atmosphere.
