Currently, there is a 4 4 scarcity of appropriate validation datasets due to a lack of well-documented … … 18 18 Australiawhich is used to simulate the tsunami inundation. 19 19 This study ashows that the tsunami modelling methodology adopted is credible 20 and able to predict detailed inundation extents with reasonable accuracy.20 and able to predict detailed inundation extents and dynamics with reasonable accuracy. 21 21 Model predictions matched well a detailed inundation survey 22 22 of Patong Bay, Thailand as well as altimetry data from the \textsc{jason}, … … 25 25 A simple sensitivity analysis was performed to assess the influence of 26 26 small changes in friction, wave height at the 100 m depth contour and 27 the presence of buildings and other structureson the model27 the presence of buildings on the model 28 28 predictions. Of these three, the presence of buildings was shown to 29 29 have the greatest influence on the simulated inundation extent. This result 30 30 indicates that the influence of human-made structures should be included, 31 where possible in any future studies. The value of friction and small31 where possible, in any future studies. The value of friction and small 32 32 perturbations in the waveheight at the \textsc{anuga} boundary have 33 33 comparatively little effect on the model results.
