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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

Short-term growth response to fertilization in young quaking aspen

Van Cleve
Nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium fertilizers were applied to 15-year-old quaking aspen developing on a burned site in interior Alaska. After two years of nutrient application, maximum tip, diameter, and basal area growth averaged 27.1 cm, 0.72 cm, and 2.9 cm per tree,…

Ecological effects of river flooding and forest fires on permafrost in the taiga of Alaska

Viereck
In the taiga of Alaska, permafrost and vegetation are closely related. In areas underlain by permafrost, the nature of the vegetation is important in determining the thickness of the active layer. In a black spruce stand, the active layer is normally 30-60 cm thick. Flooding has…

Nutrient ion losses in streamflow after fire and fertilization in eastern Washington [abstract]

Tiedemann, Helvey
During the 2 years after a severe wildfire, concentration of nitrate-N increased from pre-fire levels of 0.015 ppm to 0.56 ppm on a burned, unfertilized watershed and to 0.54 ppm and 1.47 ppm on watersheds that were burned and fertilized with 54 kg/ha of N as ammonium sulfate…
