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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.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 Discussion ... 'It has been shown that a number of research foresters have investigated the use of prescribed burning as a technique for regenerating cut-over jack pine stands and, in general, results have been very promising. However, it has also been shown that…

The effect of crown damage on mortality of red pine (Pinus resinosa Ait.) and white pine (Pinus strobus L.) was examined using both controlled temperature laboratory experiments on pine seedlings and prescribed fires in mature pine stands. Laboratory experiments indicated that…
