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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

Aboveground biomass, forest floor, and soil carbon (C) stocks were estimated for a transitional boreal region in western Alberta using available forest inventory data, model simulation, field observed plot data, and soil polygon (area averaged) information from the Canadian soil…

After wildfire in the boreal forest, storage of organic carbon (C) begins with the accumulation of forest floor material. Soil properties of Gray Luvisols were studied to determine the differences in development along three toposequences. Our central hypothesis is that slope…

Antelope bitterbrush is a widely adapted shrub occuring throughout the western United States. The many ecotypes of bitterbrush differ in growth habit, growth rate, fire tolerance, drought resistance, palatability, and numerous other attributes. Many also show specific…

In this study, the dynamics of soil thermal, hydrologic, and ecosystem processes were coupled to project how the carbon budgets of boreal forests will respond to changes in atmospheric CO2, climate, and fire disturbance. The ability of the model to simulate gross primary…

The effect of alternative harvesting practices on long-term ecosystem productivity and carbon sequestration was investigated with the ecosystem simulation model, FORECAST. Three tree species, white spruce (Picea glauca), trembling aspen (Populus tremuloides), and lodgepole pine…

Tropical peatlands are one of the largest near-surface reserves of terrestrial organic carbon, and hence their stability has important implications for climate change. In their natural state, lowland tropical peatlands support a luxuriant growth of peat swamp forest overlying…

The NOAA 12 advanced very high resolution radiometer detected extensive forest fires in boreal Siberia and northern Mongolia during April through October 1998, a year of extremely dry weather, in particular, in the Russian Far East. Analysis of the satellite data has been…

A study was carried out to assess the variability in trace gas emission from several factors and to estimate the immediate impact of fire on carbon exchange. Using geospatial data, a model of emission was developed for three carbon-based gases, CO2, CO, and CH4, released during…
