  "term": "Model Standard",
  "field": "Environment",
  "definition": "1. A document that has been developed and established to connote specified consensus and approval of certain techniques and standards. A prescribed level of acceptability or an approved model used as a basis for comparison. Voluntary technical guidance until adopted into a building code. EPA has published one for radon-resistant new construction, called Model Standards and Techniques for Control of Radon in New Residential Buildings.\n\n2. The standard serves the same purpose for every model, that is, it provides a consistent structure by which to acquire and report information. The standard has no impact on the science of the model. But it has an enormous effect on our ability to share the science of the model, to interoperate.",
