Forward; Preface; Introduction; Part I. Migratory Routes and Movement
Ecology: 1. Goose migration across the Himalayas: migratory routes and
movement patterns of bar-headed geese; 2. Himalayan thoroughfare: migratory
routes of ducks over the rooftop of the world; 3. Migratory routes across
the Himalayas used by Demoiselle Cranes; 4. Passerine migration across the
Himalayas; 5. Wader migration across the Himalayas; 6. Raptor migration
across and around the Himalayas; 7. Steppe Eagle migration from Mongolia to
India; 8. Peregrine Falcons crossing the 'Roof of the World'; Part II.
Physiography of the Highest Barrier on Earth: 9. Geological origin and
evolution of the Himalayas; 10. Late Quaternary glacier fluctuations in the
Himalayas and adjacent mountains; 11. The influence of hydrology and
glaciology on wetlands in the Himalayas; 12. The Himalayan vegetation along
horizontal and vertical gradients; 13. Assessing the evidence for changes
in vegetation phenology in high altitude wetlands of Ladakh (2002¿2015);
Part III. High-Altitude Migration Strategies: 14. The wind system in the
Himalayas: from a bird's-eye view; 15. Birds, gliders and uplift systems
over the Himalayas; 16. Goose migration over the Himalayas: physiological
adaptations; 17. Distance-altitude trade off may explain why some migratory
birds fly over and not around the Himalayas; 18. Refuelling stations for
waterbirds: macroinvertebrate biomass in relation to altitude in the
Trans-Himalayas; 19. The Himalayas as an ecological barrier for avian
migrants: high and dry, but also dangerous?; 20. Bird species diversity on
an elevational gradient between the Greater Himalaya and the Tibetan
Plateau; Part IV. People and their Effects on the Himalayas: 21. Evidence
of human presence in the Himalayan mountains: new insights from
petroglyphs; 22. Pastoralism and wetland resources in Ladakh's Changthang
plateau; 23. Impacts of tourism and military presence on wetlands and their
avifauna in the Himalayas; 24. Birds in relation to farming and livestock
grazing in the Indian Trans-Himalaya; 25. Migratory ducks and protected
wetlands in India; 26. A network of small, dispersed Himalayan wetlands
suitable for designation under the Ramsar Convention; Part V. Conclusions:
27. Bird migration across the Himalayas and beyond: the need for better
conservation and management of a natural wonder; Appendix. Locations
(places, mountains, rivers, etc.) mentioned in the chapters and their
geographic coordinates.
