摘要：

In mechanism studies on sudden sediment source areas (SSAs), such as those of shallow landslides, area-specific soil strength information at the soil layer between saturated and unsaturated soil is an important factor. Although various soil-testing methods have been developed, it is difficult to measure soil strength directly due to local variation. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to estimate SSAs of shallow landslides by considering the soil strength attributes reflected in a simple subsurface hydrologic concept (SHC). The selected study area is a granitic region in Jinbu, eastern South Korea, where shallow landslides occurred at more than 1200 locations in 2006. To estimate SSAs, soil strength was generated using several methods (i.e., direct shear tests [DSTs], Monte Carlo-simulated direct shear tests [MSDTs], and triaxial compression test [TCTs]). In addition, to investigate the effects of soil attributes in saturated/unsaturated soil on the SHC, soil depth was surveyed at a small hillslope site within the large study area. A topographically driven physical shallow landslide stability model (SHALSTAB) was utilized to investigate the performance based on the various soil strength attributes, and the results were analyzed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analyses. In the evaluation using the three soil strength measures (Case I), the accuracy assessment of the estimated SSAs was relatively low (range of 0.45-0.71). Using the soil strength attribute reflecting SHC (Case II), the results showed a reasonable range of accuracy (0.84-0.85). In addition, using the effects of soil strength reflected by SHC and average soil depth (Case III) also showed good predictive accuracy (0.81-0.82), but it was lower than that of Case II. This indicates that combining the hydraulic properties related to soil strength facilitates more accurate identification of SSAs causing geomorphic surface changes.
