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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

From the text ... 'The major purpose of this survey was to determine the extent to which cut-over and burned-over lands were reproducing in the various forest sections, particularly with respect to coniferous pulpwood species. Secondary objectives were to develop a satisfactory…

In this paper I wish to review certain facets of the role of fire in the ecology of forest game, then go on to speculate about how forest fire protection may influence populations of forest wildlife.© The Canadian Institute of Forestry/Institut forestier du Canada. Abstract…

The author presents excellent evidence that the effects of sun and wind are not necessarily additive in their effect on reducing the moisture content of fuels, but that wind may actually retard the rate at which forest fuel will lose moisture because of its effect in lowering…

This study has defined actual reductions in recoverable merchantable volumes per acre in fire-killed pine stands. It has demonstrated that, when more than two years have elapsed, reductions in yield of considerable magnitude due to deterioration as a direct or indirect result of…

The determination of total tree age is usually based on ring counts of increment cores which ideally should pass through tree center. For several reasons the borer does not always "hit the pith," and it becomes necessary to estimate how many rings were missed. The pith locator…

Abstract of a paper outlining research programmes on: the effect of fires on succession; methods of cutting the all-aged climax forest for pulpwood, to ensure good second-growth stands; methods of predicting quality and quantity of second growth on the basis of the present…
