This study proposes a methodology for integrating vegetation's mechanical control into a physically-based, eco-hydrological slope stability model by estimating apparent root cohesion via the Root Area Ratio (RAR). A synthetic case study demonstrates the approach's effectiveness in evaluating combined hydrological and mechanical controls.

Abstract

This study proposes a methodology for integrating vegetation's mechanical control into a physically-based, eco-hydrological slope stability model by estimating apparent root cohesion via the Root Area Ratio (RAR). A synthetic case study demonstrates the approach's effectiveness in evaluating combined hydrological and mechanical controls.
