Loess is influenced by its own structural properties and easily caused landslide disasters under the natural or artificial forces. According to the statistics, 1/3 of the landslides in China occurred in the Loess Plateau with a density of 6 per square kilometer, more than 100 new landslides occur annually. It’s conceivable that loess landslide become the most representative geological hazard in the Loess Plateau. This paper introduced basic properties of loess, focused on natural and artificial inducing factors of loess landslide, and discussed the harmonious way between human and loess landslide, with a view to let the public understand the loess landslide disaster and strengthen awareness of disaster prevention and control.
