**Description**


The model identifier string is supplied with
``id_model`` and is used to provide a unique identifier string for use
within method specifications (refer to the keyword ``model_pointer`` in
any of the methods in the :dakkw:`method` block, for example:
:dakkw:`method-list_parameter_study-model_pointer`)

This is used to determine which model the method will run.
