Slope Stability Assessment using Stochastic Rainfall Simulation
Procedia Computer Science, 2012 AbstractMany regions around the world are vulnerable to rainfall-induced landslides and debris flows. A variety of methods, from simple analytical approximations to sophisticated numerical methods, have been proposed over the years for capturing the relevant physics leading to landslide initiation. A key shortcoming of current hazard analysis techniques,

A rainfall simulation study on the relationships between soil test P versus dissolved and potentially bioavailable particulate phosphorus forms in runoff [PDF]
, 2005 Runoff from clayey soils often contains abundant particulate phoshorus (PP), part of which may solubilize in surface waters. Monitoring losses of potentially bioavailable forms of PP is expensive, calling for other ways to predict them.
