The meteorological stations with continuous meteorological data and maize yield data in Northeast China during 1981-2009 was divided into 4 zones according to temperature (T_(mean)),sunshine hours (SH) and precipitation(P),in which the climatic maize yield was calculated by using of first-differences method. The sensitivity of maize yield to climate change was analyzed by using of multiple-regression method. The results showed that the climatic maize yield decreased though actual maize yield increased during 1981-2009. The sensitivity of climatic maize yield to,in climatic type I zone,T_(max),AT,DTR (daily temperature range) and SH was high,with the standard coefficients were-1. 244,1. 484,-0. 655 and 0. 502 respectively. In climatic type II zone,the sensitivity of climatic maize yield to T_(min),AT,DTR and SH was high,with the standard coefficients were 1. 325,-1. 739,-0. 272 and-0. 515 respectively. In climatic type III zone,the sensitivity of climatic maize yield to T_(max),AT,P and SH was high,with the standard coefficients were-2. 171,3. 450,0. 235 and 0. 493 respectively. In climatic type IV,the sensitivity of climatic maize yield to T_(min),AT,P and SH was high,with the standard coefficients were 0. 88,-1. 014,0. 329 and0. 256 respectively. Climatic maize yield was sensitive to AT in all types zones,was sensitive to T_(min) in high temperature zones,was sensitive to T_(max) in moderate and low temperature zones. Climatic yield was sensitive to P and SH in high precipitation zones,and was sensitive to DTR and SH in moderate and low precipitation zones.
