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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

Sound resource management, including fire management, cannot be based on biased information and incomplete facts. A way to become critical is to understand the basic ecological principles that underlie resource management and that are inherent in the resources under…

Laboratory feeding tests indicate that hemlock sawfly populations are partially regulated by food quality. Semi-starvation of late-instar larvae, due to feeding on current year's foliage rather than on a normal diet of previous year's foliage, caused a 65% reduction in survival…

Soils in two adjacent forest stands in interior Alaska, one birch (Betula papyrifera) and the other black spruce (Picea mariana), were sampled in 2-cm increments to a depth of 50 cm. The soils had developed from the same parent material and were similar in slope and aspect. The…
