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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

At 300-400 C, aliphatic hydrocarbons coming from undecomposed and partially decomposed plant materials heated in the lab induced water-repellency in sand. The water-repellent substances were not extractable with solvents and were thought to be polar molecules.

[From the Introduction] Fire as a landscape process is of broad interest to ecologists and land managers. Fires alter forest age-distributions (Heinselman, 1973; Van Wagner, 1978), are sensitive to climate (Balling et al., 1992, Swetnam and Bettancourt, 1990; Swetnam, 1993;…
