Landscape Genetics Simulator

The Landscape Genetics Simulator models how allele frequencies change across a spatially structured population over time. Users can manipulate mutation rate, dispersal distance, and physical barriers to visualize the effects of gene flow and drift. The tool is designed for high school and undergraduate education in biology, evolution, and conservation science.
