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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

Late Holocene deforestation of a tree line site: estimation of pre-fire vegetation composition and black spruce cover using soil charcoal

Asselin, Payette
Anatomical identification of soil charcoal fragments was used to reconstruct the pre- fire vegetation composition of a tree line site that burned ca 930 cal. AD in northern Quebec, Canada. Soil charcoal was also used as a proxy to estimate black spruce Picea mariana palaeo-cover…

Measurement of post-fire hillslope erosion to evaluate and model rehabilitation treatment effectiveness and recovery

Robichaud
The increasing size and severity of wildfires in the western United States has caused a corresponding increase in post-fire emergency erosion control activities. Hillslope treatments, such as broadcast seeding, mulching and installed barriers, are applied to reduce runoff and…

Variation in postfire organic layer thickness in a black spruce forest complex in interior Alaska and its effects on soil temperature and moisture

Kasischke, Johnstone
This study investigated the relationship between climate and landscape characteristics and surface fuel consumption as well as the effects of variations in postfire organic layer depth on soil temperature and moisture in a black spruce (Picea mariana (Mill.) BSP) forest complex…

Successional pathways on different surficial deposits in the coniferous boreal forest of the Quebec Clay Belt

Lecomte, Bergeron
To infer successional pathways on different surficial deposits in northwestern Quebec, we combined the chronosequence approach to the study of within-stand species' vertical distribution. The deposits sustained different frequencies of postfire stand composition types and…
