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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

Forest fire perimeters, in both Canada and the United States are predicted with an elliptical growth model, or acellular growth model, that emulates an ellipse. Recently it has been shown that the fractal dimension, a measure of line "wiggliness", anda subdivision ofthe science…

The existing literature on wildland fire is assessed in terms of both the biological and social impacts of prescription fire on recreational wildlands. Gaps in the literature are noted and future areas of needed research are suggested, with particular emphasis on the Rocky…

Operational parameters for an S2F airtanker were monitored on a series of wildland fires to verify previous assumptions concerning typical flight envelopes. Results confirmed the validity of the procedure and instrumentation used in obtaining real-time aircraft drop height,…

There are four major questions affecting the future of ecological restoration. The first and most serious question is philosophical. Should we attempt to restore ecosystems? Some people want to separate humans from nature because they believe that human intervention is bad or…
