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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

The Alaska vegetation classification presented here is a comprehensive, statewide system that has been under development since 1976. The classification is based, as much as possible, on the characteristics of the vegetation itself and is designed to categorize existing…

The quantity and quality of forage produced on Southampton Island, Northwest Territories were studied from 1970 to 1972 in order to evaluate the capability of the range to support barren-ground caribou (Rangifera tarandus groenlandicus). Using aerial photographs (scale 1:60,000…

As of 1992, beetle-caused spruce mortality ranged from 8 to 68% of the spruce component within 5 sample areas. Continued beetle activity and tree mortality are expected for at least the next two to three years. Management alternatives are discussed.

During the winter of 1981, a windstorm caused extensive blowdown in the Yakutat area. In 1988, 20 permanent plots were established to monitor spruce beetle activity. A reevaluation of these plots in 1991 revealed low spruce beetle populations and minimal tree mortality since…

Many parts of interior Alaska have a fire-dominated environment. It has been recognized that there are many beneficial effects of fire; consequently, the past fire control philosophy has been altered. Prescribed and controlled burning are being considered under the new approach…
