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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

In order to estimate the production of charcoal and the atmospheric emissions of trace gases volatilized by burning we have estimated the global amounts of biomass which are affected by fires. We have roughly calculated annual gross burning rates ranging between about 5 Pg and 9…

CH4 and CO2 fluxes were measured in upland boreal forest soils near Thompson, Manitoba, from May 16 to September 16, 1994. Most sites consumed atmospheric CH4, fluxes ranging from +0.6 to -2.6mgCH4m-2d-1, and emitted CO2 at rates between 0.2 and 26.8gCO2m-2d-1. There was some…

We used input and decomposition data from 14C studies of soils to determine rates of vertical accumulation of moss combined with carbon storage inventories on a sequence of burns to model how carbon accumulates in soils and moss after a stand-killing fire. We used soil drainage-…

Fine-root (diameter 10 mm) standing biomass, length, distribution, production, and decomposition were studied in mixed conifer/broadleaved forest stands 48, 122, and 232 yr after fire on clay soils in the southern boreal forest of Quebec. A combination of ingrowth bags, soil…

During the spring and summer of 1994 we monitored soil-atmosphere exchanges of methane and carbon dioxide at upland sites in the Canadian boreal forest near the northern study area (NSA) of the Boreal Ecosystem-Atmosphere Study (BOREAS). The effects of fire on methane and carbon…
