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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

Cambium heated with a hot air flow survived 60 degrees C exposures up to 4 minutes, and 65 degrees C for less than 2 minutes. Tetrazolium chloride was shown to be a suitable viability test stain for several resinous and non-resinous species. Techniques and results are discussed.

In the course of drawing up a forest-cover map, data were collected on forest types and their distribution, and rates of growth. It was concluded that soil type and superficial geology are relatively unimportant in controlling distribution of vegetation in the area, as compared…

Seed traps were arranged under a fire-killed 60 year Picea mariana stand immediately after the fire, and seed collections taken at intervals for 60 days. Much seed was released in the first 10 days, but less than half the natural seedfall occurred during the first 60 days.…

This study was undertaken during the summers of 1949 to 1952 to provide a better understanding of the ecological effects of forest fires in the Alaska interior. The information sought related primarily to the effects of forest fires on vegetation, but effects on soils, fur-…

Recent activity of Yoho Glacier was determined by botanical and geological dating techniques and from published accounts. Tree growth in four forests adjacent to the end moraine was measured by increment borings of 200 Picea engelmannii. Drawings of increment cores were made in…
