| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Cosmic-ray soil moisture observing system (COSMOS), a method of measuring cosmic-ray neutrons (φ) near soil surface, was installed on a volcanic ash soil slope and examined to establish an innovative landslide warning system. Although the determination of near-surface soil moisture content (θ) based on φ-value was difficult due to the heterogeneity and uncertainty of water balance within sensing slope area, response of φ to soil water index (SWI) and/or θ was observed during the rainy season. We believe that the COSMOS presented here would be a unique method to monitor near surface soil moisture content of whole slope area if compatible soil moisture model considering the growth of plant communities and 3-dimentional topographic data are proposed.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
高速中性子数(φ)の測定に基づくCOSMOSを活用した新しい土砂災害警報システムを構築するために，火山灰土急斜面において，5地点×3深度の土壌水分量を連続測定し，それらのデータとCOSMOSによるφ値と経験的関係を見出した。COSMOSの実用化のためには，被覆植生や地形を考慮した校正に関する検討が必要であるものの，斜面の表層土壌水分量を連続測定できる唯一の方法として，COSMOSが有望であることを確認し，今後の土砂災害警報システム構築のための基礎的知見を得た。
