| Description | Slope failures are significant natural hazards in many areas throughout the world. A slope failure can be defined as a downward movement of a large amount of material. Regional slope stability is to study the possibility of slope deformation and instability from the view of regional scale. The paper took the Maerqu watershed from Makehe to Moba County in the upper reaches of Dadu River as the study area. The chapter discusses the Maerqu watershed from Makehe to Moba County in the upper reaches of Dadu River as study area. Rainfall is the most important triggering factor of slope failure when the geological and landform conditions are developed. It is clear that the regional landslides will appear when the rainfall reaches some numerical values, and the relation is very strong between rainstorm and landslides. In mountain area, slope failure hazards usually cause great damages. Therefore, it is very important to recognize mountain-hazard-prone area for the economic development in mountain area.
