At least climate science is mostly all Fortran. Of the Global Climate Models used in the latest IPCC 2007 report, I can find by googling that the following Global Climate Models are written in Fortran:
BCM (Bergen Climate Model), Norway
CNRM-CM, France
Community Earth System Model (CESM), NCAR, USA
ECHAM5, Germany
ECHO-G (based on ECHAM), Germany
GFDL CM2.x, NOAA, USA
GISS, NASA, USA
HadCM3, UK
HadGEM1, UK
IPSL-CM, France
This one, I can only find slight hints that it'd also be Fortran:
CSIRO Mk3.5 Climate Model, Australia
These, I could not find much info at all (but all bets are on them being in Fortran, too):
BCC-CM1, China
FGOALS, China
GCGM, Canada
MIROC3.2, Japan
MRI-CGCM, Japan
Model list is from these sources:

In numerical weather prediction (local and regional weather forecasts for 1-2 weeks) the scene is very probably all Fortran, too, but I don't have a list of models at hand. Two widely used models that I know of: WRF (USA), and HIRLAM (Europe), are in Fortran.
