  • The stable-unstable curve graph (S-U curve) and the ignition los curve graph (IL curve) for pollen composition and inorganic material content in three areas (namely, Kawadoi Basin, Moniwa-Takada moor, and Nenoshiroishi moor) were prepared to reconstruct the recurrence history of slope failure during the Holocene in Northeastern Japan. Through the S-U curve, a period with a high slope failure frequency of 5,600~4,670yrB.P. was identified in Kawadoi Basin, two of 6,390~5,070yrB.P. and 4,750~3,800yrB.P. in Moniwa-Takada moor, and three of 6,630~6,070yrB.P., 5,890~5,360yrB.P., and 5,000~4,650yrB.P. in Nenoshiroishi moor. Through the IL curve, a period with a high slope failure frequency of 5,600~5,140yrB.P. was identified in Kawadoi Basin, and two of 6,390~6,170yrB.P. and 4,750~2,840yrB.P. in Moniwa-Takada moor. Most of above-mentioned periods were included in the period of slope instability in precedent studies. However, the periods with high slope failure frequency in this study were rather different from those in precedent studies. The times and numbers associated with these periods in each study area also showed discrepancies. Accordingly, to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, more case studies must be performed to improve the reconstruction level of slope failure frequency, which could be explained through the analysis of pollen composition and inorganic material content.
