In Greek mythology, the original god of the sea was named Nereus. Among other powers, he could prophesy the future. That’s why researchers at the University of British Columbia thought to name a project to predict future ocean conditions after Nereus. Now, the initial computer simulations are out.
The Nereus Program is designed to answer the question, will there be seafood and a healthy ocean years from now… up to the end of this century. Univ. of B.C. fisheries experts are coordinating an international group of researchers to perfect a sophisticated oceanic simulator.
