Project Planning:
================
Spider World
- simulation of the effect of spiders as early colonizers of barren and newly emerged territory on the nutrients
- spiders as wind-blown predators that either catch prey and survive, enriching the terrain a lot, or dying, and enritching it just alittle bit.
- in-blown prey (~ eg various diptera)
- prey start to generate in habitat at certain nutrient levels?
- cannibalism important factor
