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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

The suggestion that some forest fires should be allowed or even encouraged to burn in the large national and provincial parks is bound to evoke a wide range of reactions. For decades the forest authorities across Canada have spared no effort to convince people that forest fires…

[from the forward] Next to crop prices, nothing is more important to the farmer's business than the weather, and in fact the weather often has a strong influence on prices. So every farmer takes a keen interest in the weather, and in many cases he is a weather prophet of no mean…

Spatial anomaly patterns of sea-level pressures over North America, the North Pacific, and eastern Asia in the 20th century can be statistically calibrated with spatial anomaly pattern of tree growth in semi-arid western North America. Growth anomalies prior to 1900 were…
