• the WETNESS DEGREE plays a fundamental role on the instability: when 5% of
criterion hillslope area reaches instability (relevant soil wetness reached) failure propagation
velocity increases

Failure
the contribution of unsaturated soil condition provide an additional shear strenght
criterion to the soil so that it may ensure the stability of steep slope (in areas where the
