Abstract
The article analyzes the ecosystems of the Nuratau State Nature Reserve according to the IUCN Habitat Classification Scheme. Based on a global habitat map with 100 m spatial resolution, eight habitat types were identified, and it was shown that the Grassland – Temperate class occupies the largest share of the area. Field observations demonstrated that some globally mapped units are not actually present in the reserve, while others occupy such small areas that they do not appear on the global habitat map. The study emphasizes the need to complement global data with local field observations.
