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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

[Excerpt] At the time of the 1988 drought and fires in Yellowstone, studies of the northern range were reevaluating the success of the natural [elk] regulation experiment. Extensive burning in 1988 occurred on five out of the seven elk summer ranges. All four of the elk winter…

Assembly rules provide one possible unifying framework for community ecology. Given a species pool, and measured traits for each species, the objective is to specify which traits (and therefore which subset of species) will occur in a particular environment. Because the problem…

Fire effects on aplant community, soil, and air are not apparent when judged only by surface fire intensity. The fire severity or fire impact can be described by the temperatures reached within the forest floor and the duration of heating experienced in the vegetation, forest…

From the text...'The purpose of this document is to provide technical information on prescribed burning. It does so in two ways. One, it provides background information useful in determining reasonably available control measures (RACM) and best available control measures (BACM)…

The Interior Lowland of North America, comprising the Central Lowland and the Great Plains, is a region of approximately 3.2 x 106 km2. The nature of the (climatic) climax vegetation in this area has been a matter of controversy. Empirical evidence regarding the vegetation of…

In the United States, prescribed burning of wildlands is practiced on over 2 million hectares of land each year. Based on our survey conducted in 1989, approximately 70, 20, and 10% of this burning occurs in the Southeast, Pacific Northwest, and Rocky Mountain regions,…

Although advanced technologies are available for measuring and sampling fire intensity, their costs, limitations, or complexity often preclude general use in field experiments. The lack of quality measurements exacerbates the task of relating ecological responses directly to the…

Serotinous cones of lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta var. latifolia Engelm.) from a large, relatively uniform, cone lot from a stand collection in Alberta were subjected to six different methods of opening the cone scales: (1) drying at 60oC for 16 hours in a conventional kiln, (2…

From the text: 'On July 21, 1988, with about 16,600 acres already burned, the Part Service suspended the monitoring policy: from that point all fires would be fought. To advise the Greaer Yellowstone Unified Area Command in planning fire strategy, fire behavior analysts depended…
