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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

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…

Nutrient accumulation for postfire jack pine and hardwood succession patterns in New Brunswick

MacLean, Wein
Distribution of N, P, K, Ca, and Mg in the tree, understory, forest floor, and mineral soil horizons was determined for two series of postfire foerest stands in northeastern New Brunswick. Twelve pure jack pine stands (Pinus banksiana Lamb.) and 11 mixed hardwood stands aged 7-…

The effect of cutting and burning on browse production in Eastern Canadian aspen forests

Weber
A 20-year-old aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) ecosystem was subjected to two cutting and two burning treatments. Cutting and prescribed burning were carried out on separate areas. One cutting and one burning treatment was applied both before and after spring leaf flush. An…

Identifying indicators of state change and forecasting future vulnerability in Alaskan boreal forest

Schuur, McGuire, Johnstone, Mack, Rupp, Euskirchen, Genet, Melvin, Frey, Jean, Walker, Tissier
This research is designed to understand the mechanistic connections among vegetation, the organic soil layer, and permafrost ground stability in Alaskan boreal ecosystems. Understanding these linkages is critical for projecting the impact of climate change on permafrost in…

Clean air and healthy ecosystems: managing emissions from fires

Potter, Fox
After nearly a century of avid fire suppression, land managers are substantially increasing prescribed burning to meet ecosystem management objectives. As scientists and managers we need to accurately quantify the capacity of airsheds to assimilate smoke and related atmospheric…

Effects of ammonium phosphate and sulfate on the pyrolysis and combustion of cellulose

George, Susott
Differential thermal, thermogravimetric, and derivative thermogravimetric analyses were used to study the effects of two important fire retardant chemicals-ammonium phosphate and ammonium sulfate-on the pyrolysis and combustion of cellulose. To aid in the interpretation of…

Fire effects on nitrogen pools and dynamics in terrestrial ecosystems: a meta-analysis

Wan, Hui, Luo
A comprehensive and quantitative evaluation of the effects of fire on ecosystem nitrogen (N) is urgently needed for directing future fire research and management. This study used a meta-analysis method to synthesize up to 185 data sets from 87 studies published from 1955 to 1999…

Fire effects on soil organic matter content, composition, and nutrients in boreal interior Alaska

Neff, Harden, Gleixner
Boreal ecosystems contain a substantial fraction of the earth's soil carbon stores and are prone to frequent and severe wildfires. In this study, we examine changes in element and organic matter stocks due to a 1999 wildfire in Alaska. One year after the wildfire, burned soils…
