Particularly in tropical Received 24 September 2009 regions which are covered extensively with residual soils, the temporal frequency of rainfall-induced slope Received in revised form 12 April 2010 failure is very high. Hydraulic properties of soil as defined by soil–water characteristic curve, saturated Accepted 16 April 2010 coefficient of permeability and unsaturated permeability function are essential properties that affect rainfall- Available online 24 April 2010 induced slope failures. The effects of hydraulic properties of soil on rainfall-induced slope failure are
