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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

Fire perimeters can be quickly estimated using a 'rate of spread/elapsed time' table. This eliminates the need for plotting the fire acreage in order to determine the perimeter of the fire, and control force requirements based on fire perimeter can be determined quicker.

The feasibility of using Landsat digital data in conjunction with topographic data to delineate commercial forests by stand size and crown closure was tested in the Tanana R. basin. A modified clustering approach using 2 Landsat dates to generate an initial forest type…

A method is described for delineating fire climate zones, using a multiple regression relationship between a fire danger parameter and simple climatic averages. In this example, climatic averages were rainfall and daily max. temp. for the May-Aug. fire season. Fire danger was…
