1This report has described the impact to Onslow from a tsunami
2generated by a Mw 9 earthquake on the Sunda Arc subduction zone
3occurring at Mean Sea Level.
4There is no knowledge of the return period for this event. The
5modelling methodology, assumptions and data sources have also
6been described.
7As discussed in Section \ref{sec:issues}, there are issues
8with the underlying data set which may have vertical inaccuracies
9of approximately 1-2m. As a result, these results should be considered
10preliminary.
11These scenarios will be revisited once the probabilistic models
12are complete so that a suite of tsunami impact assessments can be made.
13It is therefore imperative that suitably accurate onshore data
14be made available to raise confidence in the impact assessments.

16Future activities to support the impact studies on the North West Shelf
17include:
18
19\begin{itemize}
20\item Sourcing of data sets
21\item Investigation of solution sensitivity to cell resolution,
22bathymetry and tsunami source uncertainties
23\item Location of boundary for simulation study area
24\item Investigation of friction coefficients
25\end{itemize}
