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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

From the introduction ... 'In this paper a detailed, general review of the toxic species evolved over a wide range of conditions is given, along with an outline of the physiological responses to the common fire gases and liquids. Published reviews appear to be few1-3; for the…

The computed spatial dependence of graybody radiation from a specific cone shape, representative of small fires, showed the greatest radiation intensity directly above the cone. The inverse square law was accurate beyond a distance of three times the maximum cone dimension.…

The National Fire-Danger Rating (NFDR) System produces three indexes-Occurrence, Burning, and Fire Load-that measure relative fire potentials. These indexes are derived from the fire behavior components-Spread, Energy Release, and Ignition-plus a consideration of Risk. Three…

The development of a mathematical model for predicting rate of fire spread and intensity applicable to a wide range of wildland fuels is presented from the conceptual stage through evaluation and demonstration of results to hypothetical fuel models. The model was developed for…

This study develops a data-transformation method useful in correlating species importance with habitat factors. The relative basal area of six major tree species is examined in relation to data on eight environmental factors. A parabola transformation makes the dome-shaped…
