A resistive strain gauge method for quantifying rock outcrop surface deformation directly in the field has been verified. An experiment was carried out to apply low cost resistive strain gauges directly to the rock surface. Continuous measurements were then taken over a period of approximately 6 months. The data was then analysed to determine the effect of temperature on the performance of different types of strain gage connection. A high, even theoretical, accuracy of the method was found, but also the need to process the results taking into account the significant influence of temperature on the measurement outputs.

Fig. Sketch of strain gauge configurations. The figure shows the location of the instruments and the detection of both intact rock and microcrack. The configurations of instruments are presented with their different shapes and orientations (red and blue color) for testing possible distinct behavior under temperature changes.

The San Andrés landslide on El Hierro (Canary Islands) represents a rare opportunity to study an incipient volcanic island flank collapse with an extensive onshore part. The presented research improves the knowledge of the internal structure and rock characteristics of a mega-landslide before its complete failure. The onshore geophysical investigations helped detect the possible San Andrés landslide sliding surfaces at depths between 320 m and 420 m, with a rather planar geometry and they also revealed that rocks inside and outside of the landslide had similar properties which suggests that the previous fast movements of the landslide did not affect the bulk properties of the displaced rocks.
