2 Outline Introduction Literature review Methodology Pre-result Future work

3 Introduction 3 Motivation Shallow landslide is influenced by groundwater table depth of soil layer, predicting groundwater table depth can analysis slope stability effectively. Coupling hydrology theory to considerate lateral recharge of groundwater.

4 Introduction 4 Approaches to evaluate landslide Statistical approaches : Logistic Regression. Deterministic approaches : Physically-based models Steady state model : SHALSTAB MODEL(Montgomery et al., 1994) Transient model : TRIGRS (Baum et al., 00) Weight Slope angle Friction force

5 Introduction 5 Water behavior of a catchment Rainfall Infiltration Ground surface? Surface runoff Percolation River Groundwater flow Groundwater table Seepage

6 Introduction 6 Flow chart Geology and hydrology parameters Hydrological model(trigrs) Refine groundwater table depth with TOPMODEL Infinite slope model Prediction of landslide occurrence

7 Literature review 7 Literature review Combining an infinite-slope stability calculation with a transient, one-dimensional analytic solution for pore pressure response to transient rainfall infiltration. (Iverson, 000; Baum et al., 00; Savage et al., 003; Godt, 004) TRIGRS models were used for slope stability analysis in Taiwan. (C.C. Wu, 006; P.C. Wang, 007; S.H. Chung, 008) Concept of topographic index, ln(a/tanβ), and TOPMODEL. (Beven and Kirkby, 1979) A hydrological simulation based on a modified version of TOPMODEL was developed to estimate the temporal groundwater level for conducting the slope-instability analysis. (K.T. Lee, 009) Coupling TRIGRS and TOPMODEL. (H.W. Lee, 011)
