 \begin{enumerate} 
-  \item Sensitivity study using Onslow project (Jane, Ole)
+  \item Sensitivity study using Onslow project (Nick, Jane, Ole)
+  The sensitivity to mesh resolution to be investigated. There are two aspects:
+  \begin{enumerate}
+    \item Resolution of triangles containing individual gauges. ANUGA
+    keeps track of the volume of water under each triangle. Pointwise
+    measurements away from triangle centroids may deviate
+    significantly from the true values due to the linear
+    reconstruction of triangle near steep bedslopes. One study would
+    provide an error estimate of the pointwise readings as a function
+    of resolution and slope.
+    \item How does resolution affect propagation of tsunami waves. One
+    could fix the resolution near gauges at selected points near and
+    on shore and vary resolution of bathymetry affecting the
+    approaching waves. Results reported as deviation at gauges as
+    function of bathymetric resolution upstream.
+  \end{enumerate}     
+  \begin{itemize}
+    \item Nick to do the runs  
+    \item Team to help setup the study and write document
+  \end{itemize}   
+  
   \item Validation: 
   \begin{itemize}
     \item Onslow tide gauges (Ole with David Burbidge)
-    \item Boxing day event (ANU contract with Asavanant and Grilli)
+      \begin{itemize}
+      \item Ole to get data and terms of reference
+      \item Nick to do the runs  
+      \item Team to help setup the study and write document    
+    \end{itemize} 
+    \item Boxing day event (ANU contract 2006/2007 with Asavanant and Grilli)
     \item Friction validation (Duncan with Tom Baldock UQ)
+    Duncan to get a sense of scope on this by June 2003. 
+    Work to be done in 2006/2007.
     \item PDC (Ole)
+    Ole to visit Pacifit Disaster Center in 6/7
     \item 1953 Suvadata from Tariq (someone)
+    Date is available. Ole to arrange for unpacking with GIS and scope project.
+    Could form a graduate project.
   \end{itemize} 
-   
-  \item Comparison of MOST and ANUGA over a stretch of deep water. Also, where to pick up boundary condition.
-  \item Momentum sink study (Duncan)
-  \item The Black Screen of Death - ill-conditioned system, non-convergence of conjugate gradient solver.
+  \item Comparison of MOST and ANUGA over a stretch of deep water. Also, where to pick up boundary condition (Nick).
+  \item Momentum sink study (Duncan with Nick Dando)
+  Report and talk by end of June 2006. Paper later.
   \item Submarine landslide modelling paper with Dr Mueller or Russell Blong (Ask him), Sydney (Jane, Ole, Adrian, Matt). Perhaps use Wollongong as the study area.  
   \item Probabilistic integration with URS model, pending URS data (Ole, Trevor).  Ask PDC.  
   \item Effect of the GBR based on new LADS data (which we need to get from Phil O'brien). This could become a graduate program, an ANU contract or a job for an ANU summer scholar.
+  \item Scenario database (future); this could complement the ATWS
+    operational centre. (how often would it need to be updated, i.e how
+    long will the results remain valid?  eg, effect of sediment transport
+    affecting local bathymetry, change in sea levels due to climate
+    change). This is a product for the ATWS, states and EMA. AGO may need
+    scenarios under climate change scenarios.
   \item Automatic definition of mesh-resolution based on data (e.g. depth or gradients). Perhaps use wavelet transforms. Stephen has a link to a researcher at Imperial College, London.
-  \item Investigate behaviour near steep and shallow bathymetries, where artifitial fluxes may be generated.
+  \item Investigate behaviour near steep and shallow bathymetries, where artifitial fluxes may be generated. Now evolved into 'friction creep'. 
+    Stephen to look into that with input from Ole.
   \item Effect of debris on flow and damage (Under way at JCU - shawn)
   \item Write ANUGA in term of latitudes and longitudes
