Field application of distributed optical fiber sensing detects slip surfaces in high rock slopes, indicating potential for hazard mitigation.

To assess the capability of distributed optical fiber sensing in monitoring internal deformation and identifying slip surfaces in high slopes.
Field application of distributed optical fiber sensing deployed across six boreholes with varying orientations.
Monitoring involved capturing internal deformation patterns using distributed strain-sensing fibers.
Data collection enabled identification of potential slip surfaces based on depth-localized displacement patterns.
Horizontal displacements of 1.5–2.0 mm were recorded over 2 months across the monitored slope.
Multiple potential slip surfaces were identified at depths of 20–50 m, correlating with fractured rock zones.
DOFS demonstrated reliable, high-resolution monitoring capabilities for deformation assessment and early warning.
