Simulating sea-level rise impacts on mangrove ecosystems
Denilson da Silva Bezerra · Silvio Amaral · Marcio Kampel · Paulo Roberto Andrade
The reference study introduced BR-MANGUE as a spatially explicit cellular model for exploring mangrove response to sea-level rise on Maranhão Island, Brazil. Its rules and assumptions form the scientific starting point for the Studio architecture.

Benchmark note2026
Scaling the simulation with two engines
The full-CMMA + ANADEM benchmark measures one annual transition on 78.007 million active cells. Both engines produced identical annual trajectories and final maps.
