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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

Microbiome and Subducted Carbon Vulnerability in Arctic Permafrost Soils

Bárta
Presented by Jiří Bárta, Ph. D, University of South Bohemia Arctic permafrost soils contain about half of the global soil organic C (approx. 1300 Pg). One third of this C is stored in subducted organic matter (cryoOM) by the cryoturbation processes. We here present results from…

Valuing non-market economic impacts from natural hazards

Rogers, Dempster, Hawkins, Johnston, Boxall, Rolfe, Kragt, Burton, Pannell
Prioritising investments to minimise or mitigate natural hazards such as wildfires and storms is of increasing importance to hazard managers. Prioritisation of this type can be strengthened by considering benefit and cost impacts. To evaluate benefits and costs, managers require…

Burned area detection and mapping using Sentinel-1 backscatter coefficient and thermal anomalies

Belenguer-Plomer, Tanase, Fernandez-Carrillo, Chuvieco
This paper presents a burned area mapping algorithm based on change detection of Sentinel-1 backscatter data guided by thermal anomalies. The algorithm self-adapts to the local scattering conditions and it is robust to variations of input data availability. The algorithm applies…

Fundamentals of fire behavior

Gisborne
Our job of fire control can be done, in fact has been done, in several ways: By brute strength and little attention to the conditions we are attempting to control; by observation of what is happening but with little or no understanding of why the fire is behaving as it does; or…
