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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.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 ecological implications of fire in the Greater Yellowstone: proceedings: Second Biennial Conference on the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem: Yellowstone National Park, September 19-21, 1993

From the Summary by Dennis Knight (p.233-235) ... 'During and after the 1988 fires, there were many predictions on how greater Yellowstone area (GYA) ecosystems would be affected. Some were based on research that had been done previously; others stemmed more from anecdotal…

Permafrost degradation and ecological changes associated with a warming climate in central Alaska

Jorgenson, Racine, Walters, Osterkamp
Studies from 1994–1998 on the Tanana Flats in central Alaska reveal that permafrost degradation is widespread and rapid, causing large shifts in ecosystems from birch forests to fens and bogs. Fine-grained soils under the birch forest are ice-rich and thaw settlement typically…
