The ocean covers 71% of Earth's surface and drives global climate, weather patterns, and biodiversity. Beneath the waves, a complex system of currents, tides, and thermal gradients moves heat from the equator to the poles, regulates atmospheric CO₂, and sustains marine ecosystems from coral reefs to the deep abyss.
These simulations let you explore the forces that shape our oceans. Visualize global circulation patterns, watch the Moon pull tidal bulges across the planet, trace the thermohaline conveyor belt, model wave dispersion across open water, and observe how rising temperatures trigger coral bleaching events that threaten reef ecosystems worldwide.
