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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

Microbial fluctuations after soil heating and organic amendment

Acea, Carballas
Microorganisms in heated (200ºC, 1 h) soil not inoculated (H) or inoculated with 0.5% of fresh soil (Hi) and amended with wheat straw (Hi+WS) or poultry manure (Hi+PM) were determined during a 3-month soil incubation. Heating completely sterilised the soil, although the normal…

Long-term forest floor carbon dynamics after fire in upland boreal forests of western Canada

Nalder, Wein
We examined the long-term dynamics of upland boreal forest floors after disturbance by fire. We selected two important and contrasting upland tree species, Pinus banksiana (jack pine) and Populus tremuloides (trembling aspen), in three distinct climatic zones across the boreal…

Physiological stress and ethanol accumulation in tree stems and woody tissues at sublethal temperatures from fire

Kelsey, Westlind
The lethal temperature limit is 60 degrees Celsius (°C) for plant tissues, including trees, with lower temperatures causing heat stress. As fire injury increases on tree stems, there is an accompanying rise in tissue ethanol concentrations, physiologically linked to impaired…
