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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

Fuel complexes resulting from power-saw spacing in young coastal Douglas-fir and interior lodgepole pine stands were quantitatively assessed for loading and duration of hazard. Fuel appraisal data were combined with fire weather regimes to derive fire behavior predictions for…

Thermal generation of combustible vapors has been measured up to 500°C for green Douglas-fir, ponderosa pine, and lodgepole pine foliage. The relative contributions to combustible products are given for ether, benzene-ethanol, and total extractives, as well as for holocellulose…

Because standard methods for computing the optimal rotation age of a forest stand assume complete knowledge of the stand value at any future time, a forest manager must treat his estimates of future value as if they were completely accurate. Minor, unpredictable fluctuations…

Seven composite samples of western red cedar and western hemlock logging slash of 0.25 to 2 inches diameter were exposed on top of and within the bottom third of a fuel bed in the interior wet belt of British Columbia in August 1965. Their moisture contents were measured…

The National Fire-Danger Rating System (NFDRS) (Deeming and others 1972) has been updated; the revised system will be in use in l978 (Deeming and others 1977). One of the changes in the NFDRS is treatment of lightning-caused fires. A model based on physical and stochastic…

Forest managers can model and predict the postfire succession of plant communities using existing and/or readily obtainable data. The methods presented require neither computation nor computer analysis. Examples are provided from the Northern Rocky Mountains, but the methods are…
