"The project seeks a fundamental understanding of all life that relies on the largely unexplored seas covering most of Earth, increasingly beleaguered by pollution, overfishing and climate change. The unprecedented field guide to millions of species is supposed to be completed in 10 years. It could cost up to $1 billion, much of it funded by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation and governments." (THE SEATTLE TIMES) This article discusses how a 10-year study of the world's marine life will help scientists preserve the Earth's oceans.
