You could use GEMINI, which has elements of e-GMS and ISO 11915 and has been adopted for INSPIRE/UK Location Programme - see http://location.defra.gov.uk/resources/discovery-metadata-service/creating-and-publishing-metadata/ .

Subject: Re: Metadata for Climate Change information...
We have not done anything specific on this topic, but in general terms it looks to me as some of your metadata requirements would be better served using existing e-GMS elements. For example:
Rather than a Yes/No "Can it be shared?" use the e-GMS Rights element which is designed to show who has the right to see, copy, redistribute, republish or otherwise make use of all or part of the resource.
Similarly "Classification" is usually regarded as a refinement of the same e.g. Rights-Protective Marking
Data Type - Be clear here whether you mean format or type : Format looks at the physical format of the resource - type looks at the category of the information in the resource,
Keywords Period it covers - Use Coverage-Temporal
Etc.

Subject: Metadata for Climate Change information...
Hi folks
Happy New Year! Hope you all had a good break!
I'm doing some work with a colleague on metadata for some information on climate change. So far we have the following sections of metadata decided upon:
Name
Description
Organisation data held by
Data Type
Can it be shared?
Classification Level
Retention Period
Keywords Period it covers
Discrete or Continuous?
Contains Eastings and Northings?
Comments
What I'd like to know is if anyone has done similar work and would be prepared to share any metadata templates that they have created with regards to Climate Change?
Many thanks in advance!
Regards
Sarah
