We are contacting you on behalf of [CoMSES Net](https://comses.net), an open organization dedicated to advancing transparency in scientific computing. Supported in part by the [United States National Science Foundation's Big Data initiatives](https://westbigdatahub.org), our primary goals are improving practices around sharing, preserving, documenting, and citing computational models in the social and ecological sciences. As part of this program, we have been [cataloguing the state of computational model archival in published research](https://catalog.comses.net). Our bibliometric database aims to connect scholars and improve the discoverability and accessibility of modeling science so researchers can build on each other's work more effectively. Our research indicates that you have the following publication(s) referencing an agent-based or individual-based computational model:

We commend your success in advancing modeling science and disseminating your results to colleages through publication. As you may be aware, there is an [increasing demand for transparency and sharing of data and model code used to accomplish the research described in scientific publications](https://forum.comses.net/t/why-archive-your-model/7376). The widespread use of computation and digital data across science makes this critical for replicability and scientific advancement.

We were unable to locate the model source code referenced in the publication(s) listed above at a publicly available URL and hope to learn from you whether the model source code is publicly available. Clicking on the publication links above will take you to forms where you can update our database with information about the archival URL for your computational model(s) as well as any other feedback for our team. We look forward to your response!

If your model source code is not yet archived, we encourage you to do so at a trusted DOI issuing digital repository. We maintain a curated list at https://www.comses.net/resources/trusted-digital-repositories/ as a community service. By archiving your code with these repositories you can obtain a bibliographic citation and DOI for your model source code to ensure you receive professional recognition for your model-based research.
If your model source code is not yet archived, we encourage you to do so at a trusted DOI issuing digital repository. We maintain a curated list at https://www.comses.net/resources/trusted-digital-repositories/ that you may find useful. Archiving your code with these repositories can provide you with citable DOIs for your model source code and ensure you receive professional recognition for your model-based research.
