Rainfall infiltration is one of the main environmental factors that produce landslide hazards.It is very important to study the rainfall infiltration mechanism of rock and soil slope under rainfall environment.In this paper, the recent advances in rainfall infiltration, destabilizing mechanism and control measures of rock slope under rainfall conditions were briefly reviewed. The effects of rainfall intensity,duration of rainfall,initial soil moisture content,particle gradation and slope on rainfall infiltration under rainfall conditions were studied.The instability of rock slope, unstable mod...
