Snow Leopard and Himalayan Wolf: Food Habits and Prey Selection in the Central Himalayas, Nepal
Top carnivores play an important role in maintaining energy flow and functioning of the ecosystem, and a clear understanding of their diets and foraging strategies is essential for developing effective conservation strategies. In this paper, we compared diets and prey selection of snow leopards and wolves based on analyses of genotyped scats (snow leopards n = 182, wolves n = 57), collected wit...
متن کاملHuman-induced dwarfing of Himalayan snow lotus, Saussurea laniceps (Asteraceae).
Because evolutionary processes such as genetic drift and natural selection play a crucial role in determining the response that species will have to human-induced disturbances, there is increasing interest in the evolutionary aspects of conservation biology. Harvesting select individuals in natural plant populations can bring about unforeseen impacts that may negatively affect fitness. We analy...
متن کاملSatellite observations of desert dust-induced Himalayan snow darkening
[1] The optically thick aerosol layer along the southern edge of the Himalaya has been subject of several recent investigations relating to its radiative impacts on the South Asian summer monsoon and regional climate forcing. Prior to the onset of summer monsoon, mineral dust from southwest Asian deserts is transported over the Himalayan foothills on an annual basis. Episodic dust plumes are al...
متن کاملHimalayan snow chemistry: Chemical composition of fresh snow samples from Kashmir valley
The present paper deals with variability in snow chemistry of various sites spread in six districts of the Kashmir Himalayan valley, experiencing frequent snow fall during winter ( Dec.Feb). Chemical composition of fresh snow samples shows wide changes in pH (5.8–7.3), dissolved oxygen content (22-26 mg L-1), and total alkalinity (2-3 mg L-1). The levels ( mg L-1) of calcium (13.3– 28 ), magnes...
