Abstract: The division of climatic cycles, periods of climatic change for loess of China and correlation between climatic cycles from loess strata and oxygen isotope curve from deep sea sediment are summaried in this paper. Differental cause between the divisions of clamatic glacial period for Quaternary and the climate indicated by loess strata are discussed. The new results of illuvial horizon and paleosol types as well as new model of loess formation and evolution are introduced. In addition, recent studied achievements of paleovegetation in loess strata and development trend in environmental study are discussed.

Key words: loess, global change paleosol strata model of formation of loess paleovegetation
