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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

Sample size and variability of fuel weight estimates in natural stands of lodgepole pine

Delisle, Woodard, Titus, Johnson
This study assessed the variability of sample estimates for downed and dead woody fuel weight in natural lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta Dougl) stands using line-intersect sampling procedures. Equilateral triangles (30 m/side) were established at each of 40 sample sites with…

Limiting effects of snow on seasonal habitat use and diets of caribou (Rangifer tarandus groenlandicus) on Coats Island, Northwest Territories, Canada

Adamczewski, Gates, Soutar, Hudson
The insular population of barren-ground caribou (Rangifer tarandus groenlandicus) on Coats Island, Northwest Territories, is ultimately limited by winter food resources. This study was undertaken to assess forage biomass available during summer and to determine the effects of…

Twig and foliar biomass estimation equations for major plant species in the Tanana River Basin of interior Alaska

Yarie, Mead
Equations are presented for estimating the twig, foliage, and combined biomass for 58 plant species in interior Alaska. The equations can be used for estimating biomass from percentage of foliar cover of 10-centimeter layers in a vertical profile from 0 to 6 meters. Few…

Fire in North American wetland ecosystems and fire-wildlife relations: an annotated bibliography

Kirby, Lewis, Sexson
This biological report fills two important voids in the libraries of many wildlife biologists- an annotated bibliography on fire in north America wetland ecosystems and a subject index of all fire-related literature that has appeared in Wildlife Review.
