Abstract

Based on monitoring results, the paper describes the hydrological response of a steep hillslope covered by. unsaturated pyroclastic soils. The instrumented site is located just beside an area which experienced a. catastrophic flowslide two years prior to the survey. Monitoring involved rainfall and matric suction. measured at different locations and depths. Investigations focused on the hydrological response of the. slope so as to model the effects of rainfall and then predict the onset of slope failure triggered by critical. rainfall.
