The invention provides a status measurement method of a waterfowl habitat in a natural reserve. Through the method, quantitative indexes of importance of a natural reserve as a waterfowl habitat can be provided, the priority status and the conservation value of the natural reserve are embodied, and the problems of priority status ranking and conservation value measurement of the natural reserve in the waterfowl habitat are effectively solved, so that reliable support is provided for a natural reserve conservation value evaluation technology. The invention discloses the waterfowl habitat status measurement method which plays an important indication role in embodying the priority status and the conservation value of the natural reserve. As an effective protection means for waterfowls, the natural reserve is required to be directly and quantitatively embodied in priority status conservation and conservation value. Therefore, the waterfowl habitat importance is quantified to form the indexes; and the status measurement method can be applied to the conservation value assessment work of the natural reserve so as to guide the setup, the construction and the management of the natural reserve.
