Monitoring of shallow landslide in Tun Sardon 3.9 km Penang Island, Malaysia

The objective of this paper is to monitor the slope movement before a landslide occurrence. Inclinometer, piezometer and rain gauge were installed to monitor the slope. In the study area, water level of all piezometers is showing cyclic trend correlated with rainfall intensity. Observation made on J...
