Abstract: As a major agricultural province of China, Shandong province has long ranked first in agricultural growth value among all of the provinces; at the same time, it is also the province that is most affected by dry-hot wind. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the spatial zoning of the risks of dry-hot wind in this province. Based on meteorological, slope, and altitude data, and the principle of disaster risk assessment, this study uses a weighted comprehensive evaluation method, analytic hierarchy process, and ARC-GIS spatial analysis to study the spatial zoning of the risks of dry-hot wind in Shandong province. The results show that the high-risk regions of dry-hot wind are concentrated in the north-central portion of the province, the medium-risk regions are in the peripheral areas, and the low-risk regions are located mainly in the west, southwest, and east. Exposure of disaster-bearing bodies is high in the south and low in the north, while vulnerability to disaster-bearing bodies is high in the west and low in the east. The more developed areas in the east show high disaster prevention and mitigation capability, whereas this is weak in the west. In summary, dry-hot wind risk in Shandong province varies significantly by area. The medium- and high-risk areas are mainly in the west and central portions of the province.
