dc.description.abstract	The authors have conducted a noteworthy numerical study investigating the influence factors for rainfall-induced shallow slope failure. Specifically, the authors evaluated the influence of soil saturated hydraulic conductivity, slope angle, and antecedent rainfall on the stability of a shallow slope. The rainfall intensityduration (ID) thresholds were established from the numerical results, and they were comparable to those based on the historical slope failure data in the existing literature. In this discussion paper, the discussers would like to comment on the Undrained function selected for modeling the mechanical behavior of soil layers in the finite-element (FE) analyses in the discussed paper (as indicated in Table 3 in the original paper).	en_US
