Who gets what, when there isn't enough

Coriolis One is a neutral engine for sharing a limited resource between the parties who claim it. Carbon, fish, forests, water, minerals and orbits, each worked the same way, with every input shown.

Every public zone, the full method and the exports are free to read.

What Coriolis does

Competing claims in. One open answer out.

Follow one real zone from claims to split: the Murray-Darling Basin, Australia's biggest river system. The same method runs every zone in all six domains.

Step one

Every party states its claim

Five states and territories each hold a baseline limit on what they could take from the rivers. Added up, they claim 13,986.7 GL a year.

New South Wales7,652.5 Victoria3,911.4 Queensland1,596.9 South Australia767.6 ACT58.3
Step two

The resource has a limit

The Basin Plan sets a sustainable limit of 11,787.2 GL a year. The claims run 2,199.5 GL past it, the water the Plan has to recover.

Limit11,787.2Claims13,986.7
Step three

One method decides the split

The engine weighs every claim against the limit and the floors the law guarantees, then solves for the split. Here it lands on the Plan's own limits, and each share says what bound it.

Wherever the claims outrun the limit

A fish stock, a river, a carbon budget, an export quota: each has a limit, and the parties who claim it usually ask for more than it holds. Each side argues the split with its own numbers. Coriolis works out the split once, in the open, with one method for all of them.

The Hive

Step inside a zone and work it

The public site shows the engine's answer. The Hive is where you work with it, on the same engine and the same figures, so a correction to one corrects both.

Scenarios

Change it and rerun

Move a ceiling, a claim or a floor and run the engine again. Save the runs to come back to.

My positionComing soon

See what it means for you

Put in your own exposure, such as a contract, a holding or a site, and see what each scenario does to it.

AskComing soon

Ask in plain English

Pose a what-if on any zone in plain English, such as a lower ceiling or a higher floor for one party.

NegotiateComing soon

Watch the parties bargain

Simulated agents for each party negotiate in rounds. A referee checks every proposal against the zone's hard limits.

WatchComing soon

Know when a figure moves

Each zone's news is read for you. Anything stating a new figure is flagged for review. The watcher never changes a figure itself.

How the engine works

One method, in three steps

  1. Set the ceiling

    The most the resource can give, taken from the law or the science behind it: a catch advice, a legal emissions cap, an export quota. Every zone states its legal basis.

  2. Weigh every claim

    Each party's claim goes in, with any floor that a treaty or law guarantees it. Every input is marked as sourced or modelled.

  3. Solve it the same way

    The same weighted linear program solves every zone. When claims exceed the ceiling, no single party takes more than 40%, unless the zone's own framework switches that cap off. Each share says what limited it.

Where the law already sets the shares, the engine reproduces them. In DRC cobalt the regulator's quotas fill the 96.6 kt export ceiling exactly. In the Murray-Darling the Basin Plan's limits fill the ceiling to within 0.1 GL a year.

Read the method

Trust

Neutral, and plain about its limits

Modelled vs sourced

You can see which figure is which

Most inputs are modelled, not measured. Violet marks them, and each zone counts its sourced inputs.

Scenarios, not rulings

Coriolis is not a regulator

Every output is a modelled scenario, not a binding determination. Agents in the Hive are simulations and don't speak for the parties they model.

What money never buys

A different answer

Paid work changes the data and the depth, never the method. No client can buy a result or a hidden zone, and the public zones stay free. Commissioned zones are disclosed wherever they appear.

How we stay neutral
