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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

Recent developments in the use of GIS for spatial dynamic modeling has reulted in improved fire growth simulations. This paper examines previous growth models and some of their weaknesses. We then define what would be required to handle the growth of surface fire within a raster…

FIREMAP is a simulation system designed to estimate wildfire characteristics in spatially non-uniform environments and simulate the growth of fire in discrete time steps. This simulation system integrates Rothermel's behavior prediction model (Rothermel 1972) with a raster-…

A bibliography on forest and rangeland fire history containing 307 references was completed during the winter of 1979 and released in the spring of 1980 (Alexander 1979). Nearly five hundred copies have been issued to date. I have casually kept track of new and overlooked…

Vegetation type maps covering approximately 13 million ha of east-central Alaska were made using Landsat multispectral scanner data to analyze moose (Alces alces) habitat. Modified clustering techniques were used: the clustering method has significant advantage over other…

Satellite imagery is a valuable tool for environmental monitoring of natural and man-made events. Analysis of imagery within a few hours is vital if these data are to be used to respond to rapidly changing conditions. Since April of 1982 Landsat imagery from the Quick-Look…

This paper surveys available information on fire regimes and methodology employed in elucidating these regimes during the suppression, presuppression and post-glacial periods, principally in the boreal and Great Lakes-St. Lawrence forest regions of Ontario. The presettlement…

Provenance variation in Picea mariana (Mill) B.S.P. (Black spruce) seedlings was studied to provide recommendations for introducing the species into Scandinavia. Provenances were analysed in a series of tests covering root and shoot development, and mineral nutrient (N. P and K…
