Abstract:
The ability for school districts in Montana to move to a four-day school week (4dsw) schedule began following the 2005 legislative session when the annual attendance requirement was changed from 180 days to 1080 hours. While movement to the four-day week was slow at first, since that time, as of 2023, 141 school districts in Montana were utilizing the 4dsw schedule. This comprehensive study of student achievement in the 4dsw schedule as compared to the five-day school week (5dsw) schedule involved a census of all Montana student achievement data from 2008-2023.

More and more schools are interested in the four-day school week (4dsw) schedule. However, the existing research on the effects of the (4dsw) schedule in Montana is limited. This quantitative census study was conducted to address this gap and offer valuable insights to the literature about 4dsw schedule. The purpose of this quantitative census study was to investigate whether there are differences in student graduation, attendance, and behavior between the 4dsw schedule and the 5dsw schedule in Montana school districts.

Climate change has become a prominent topic, particularly regarding plant adaptation and migration within mountain ecosystems. This study aimed to clarify forest dynamics by focusing on sapling and tree stages in relation to microclimate changes across a permanent plot along an altitudinal gradient. In 2012, a permanent transect plot (50 m × 600 m) was established at the forest ecotone between the deciduous dipterocarp forest (DDF) and lower montane forest (LMF). All trees with a diameter at breast height ≥ 1 cm were tagged, measured, and identified. Monitoring occurred every 2 years between 2

Abstract:
Cabot's tragopan Tragopan caboti, a pheasant that inhabits subtropical montane forests in south-east China, is categorized as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List. Nesting in trees, it routinely makes use of natural platforms and the old nests of other species, both of which may sometimes be in short supply. This study was designed to test how much use would be made of artificial nest platforms, and to identify factors influencing their occupation. Basketry platforms made of bamboo were erected in parts of Wuyanling National Nature Reserve, Zhejiang Province, China. The tragopans used 16 platforms
