Description: The Models Knowledge Base is an inventory of EPA?s environmental models. It
contains information about model use (What are the requirements?, How can it be
obtained?, and How is it used?) and model science (What is the scientific basis
for the model?, How was the model developed?, and Was the model evaluated?).
The modeling community is encouraged to provide feedback about the Models
Knowledge Base and its models.
