    47 The following subsections detail the time series at select locations
    48 for high, low and zero tide conditions. These locations have
    49 been chosen to assist in describing the features of the tsunami wave
    50 and the resultant impact ashore. It is evident from \ref{fig:ic_high}
    51 that the DEM ...

    78 What are the features of the tsunami wave?
    79 direction? multiple waves? amplitude offshore?
    80 
    81 It is evident for each simulation that the sand dunes west of Onslow
    82 are very effective in halting the tsunami wave. The height of these
    83 sand dunes are approximately 10m which is more than enough to halt
    84 the largest of the tsunami waves which occurs for the
    85 high tide simulation. There is inundation between the sand dunes at high
    86 tide, however, this water penetrated from the north east (via
    87 Onslow town cetnre) rather than seaward.
    88 The same feature is evident for the sand dunes east of Onslow which
    89 rise to 15m in height. Currently, ANUGA can not model changes
    90 to the bathymetry or topography due to effects of the water flow.
    91 Therefore, we do not know whether these sand dunes would withstand the
    92 transmitted energy of the tsunami wave.
    93 
    94 The wave penetrates the river east of Onslow with increasingly
    95 greater inundation as the tide changes from LAT to HAT.
    96 
    97 As expected, there is greater inundation at high tide. The major road
    98 into Onslow, the Onslow Mount Stuart Rd, remains free of inundation for
    99 all tidal scenarios. Beadon Creek Rd which services the wharf in the
    100 river becomes increasingly inundated as the tide rises. Only the
    101 entry to the wharf on Beadon Creek Rd is sufficiently inundated at LAT
    102 to stop traffic. At HAT however, essentially the entire road
    103 would be impassable.
    104 
    105 There is significant inundation of at
    106 least 2m on the foreshore of Onslow for zero and high tide.
    107 The inundation extent increases as the tide rises, pushing the edges
    108 of the majority of the road infrastructure in the Onslow town centre.

    1818Impact on indigeneous communities are important considerations when determining
    1919tsunami impact, especially as a number of communities exist in coastal regions.
    20 These communities are typcially not included in national residential databases and
    21 would be therefore overlooked in damage model estimates.
