Abstract
SummaryThe Sherpas of Upper Khumbu (above 10,000 feet), Nepal, and their migrant counterparts at lower altitudes (3000–7000 feet) in Darjeeling District, West Bengal, show no statistically significant difference in age–sex structure or mortality, while there are suggestions of some fertility reduction at the higher altitudes.
