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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

Ponderosa pine seedlings were used to determine availability of soil nutrients following prescribed burning. Soils were removed from the top 10 inch layer of burned and unburned plots and placed in pots which were planted with five pine seedlings per pot. Results obtained…

From the text...'The unrestricted burning of vegetation appears to be a universal culture trait among historic primitive peoples and therefore was probably employed by our remote ancestors. Archeology indicates that extensive areas of the Old and New Worlds were being burned…

In the course of drawing up a forest-cover map, data were collected on forest types and their distribution, and rates of growth. It was concluded that soil type and superficial geology are relatively unimportant in controlling distribution of vegetation in the area, as compared…
