 An associated aim of this paper is to illustrate the use of this new
-benchmark to validate a dedicated inundation model called
-\textsc{anuga} used by Geoscience Australia. A description of
-\textsc{anuga} is given in Section~\ref{sec:models} and the validation
+benchmark to validate the three step modelling methodology employed by 
+Geoscience Australia to model tsunami inundation. A description of the model 
+components is provided in Section~\ref{sec:models} and the validation
 results are given in Section~\ref{sec:results}.
