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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

Habitat patterns in forested landscapes: management practices and the uncertainty associated with natural disturbances

Klenner, Kurz, Beukema
We present the results of a study to examine the effects of management actions and natural disturbances in influencing the evolution of habitat patterns on forested lands. TELSA, a spatially explicit vegetation succession model with the ability to apply user-defined management…

Modeling and mapping wildfire potential in Mexico based on vegetation and drought conditions using remote sensing and GIS technology

Mora, Hernandez-Cardenas
An increasing severity in the occurrence of wildfires in Mexico has been recently associated with the activity of 'El Nino' Southern Oscillation (ENSO). A spatio-temporal analysis of fire potential indicated that indeed, catastrophic fires could occur due to unusual droughts and…

Twentieth century fire patterns in the Gila/Aldo Leopold Wilderness Complex New Mexico and the Selway-Bitterroot Wilderness Area Idaho/Montana

Rollins, Swetnam, Morgan
We present results from ongoing research into 20th Century fire regimes in two large Rocky Mountain wilderness areas. Fire patterns are represented as digital fire atlases based on archival forest service data. We find that spatial and temporal fire patterns are variable in…
