Abstract Recurrent landslide activity in the natural mountain forest is assumed to be a major factor for maintaining its high biodiversity. It is hypothesized that abiotic-biotic interactions are a prerequisite for natural landslides. A statistical model solely driven by topographic predictors can explain areas prone to landslides but also shows that other factors (e.g., geology, soil, climate, vegetation) than topography might play an important role to improve model performance. Thus, the chapter also shows approaches to derive spatial information on soil properties and wind stress as potential driving predictors for the model. Furthermore, it can be shown that even changes in the biogeochemical cycle and the regulation between nutrient input and biomass production might influence the risk of landslides.
