The Alaska Reference Database originated as the standalone Alaska Fire Effects Reference Database, a ProCite reference database maintained by former BLM-Alaska Fire Service Fire Ecologist Randi Jandt. It was expanded under a Joint Fire Science Program grant for the FIREHouse project (The Northwest and Alaska Fire Research Clearinghouse). It is now maintained by the Alaska Fire Science Consortium and FRAMES, and is hosted through the FRAMES Resource Catalog. The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

The temperatures of surface fires in jack pine barren. II. The effects of vegetation cover, wind speed, and relative humidity on fire temperatures

Sparling, Smith
The temperature of 18 fires in an open jack pine barren near Timmins, Ontario, have been recorded. The maximum temperature recorded was 545 degrees C, although in other determinations fire temperatures in excess of 1000 degrees C were reached. The mean temperatures of all fires…

Prescribed burning techniques for site preparation in cut-over jack pine in southeastern Manitoba

Adams
The results of controlled burning on cut-over jack pine sites in southeastern Manitoba can be summarized as follows: (1) The fire hazard resulting from jack pine slash was eliminated on all the areas burned. (2) On most areas a good proportion of the organic material was removed…

Characterizing succession within a forest habitat type: an approach designed for resource managers

Arno, Simmerman, Keane
Describes a method for developing a general-purpose ecological model of community types and successional relationships within a forest habitat type (potential vegetation). This model is based upon data collected from a large number of seral stands, and it is intended for use in…

A broadcast burn in second-growth clearcuttings in the north central Sierra Nevada

McDonald, Schimke
The the Challenge Experimental Forest, 29 acres of slash were broadcast burned on five small clearcut plots (2 to 10 acres) at a cost of $57.00 per acre. Fuel-weight measurements showed reductions of 68 to 84% after the burn. Modifications to plot size, shape, and orientation…
