The Register of Ecological Models (REM) is a meta-database for existing
mathematical models in ecology. As of 5/5/2000, 606 models had been
cataloged.

A description of: The CAMASE Register of Agro-ecosystems Models
A registry of "relevant models used in Europe for research, education and
application in: intensively and extensively produced agricultural crops,
grasslands, forests, and their environments; cropping and farming systems,
farm households, land use; shells for such models; tools for such models
in DSS-applications (e.g. microclimate profiles for irrigation scheduling)."

A search engine for [33 (as of 6-00)] models registered with GCTE SOMNET:
The official GCTE Soil Organic Matter Network Database. Shows another
example of metadata.
http://www.epa.gov/unix0008/meta/r8_zip.html
one example of metadata for a geospatial data used by the EPA following
the FGCD standards
http://www.epa.gov/ostwater/P-ROUTE/metadata.txt.html
metadata for P-Route, a model used by the EPA

another example of EPA metadata on another model
http://164.214.2.59/GandG/metadata/metadata.html
This site is the index page of metadata for a number of NIMA Geodesy
and Geophysics models. They addapted the FGDC geospacial data standard
to apply to models. An interesting adaptation.

An example of metadata out of the USDA, Natural Resources Conservation
Service.
http://www.mesc.usgs.gov/metadata/salmod-metadata.html
An example of metadata documentation for a model from USGS. Nice
format simular to that of the FGDC geospatial standard.
