Connected groundwater and vertically-developed water-bearing fracture zone are main factors affecting the stability of landslide, and the water-bearing fracture zone together with the weak contact zone of different rocks forms the attachment surface of the landslide’s back edge, which is unfavorable for the slope stability. %U http://ckyyb.crsri.cn/EN/10.11988/ckyyb.20140486
