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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

Soil was exposed to red phosphorous/butyl rubber (RP/BR) aerosols at various relative humidities in a recirculating environmental wind tunnel. Soil microbial and enzymatic activities were measured immediately after exposure and periodically thereafter for 56 days. The…

From the text ... 'In this particular paper, as a fire ecologist, I am not primarily interested in the economic use of fire for man, but rather in the ecological relations of fire to plants, animals, and man in those interesting and sometimes peculiar adjustments, preadaptations…

The resprouting response of different sized Banksia oblongifolia lignotubers (genets) was followed in two field experiments. In thefirst, the density and speed of resprouting, and the growth in length of the leading shoot from each lignotuber in response to fire and to the time…

(1)The behaviour of the August 1936 Galatea fire in the foothills of the Canadian Rocky Mountains was reconstructed with respect to the rate of spread, frontal-fire intensity and fuel consumption, and illustrates that tree mortality, seed dispersal distance into the burn and…

Population characteristics of sympatric Testudo hermanni and T graeca were compared at four sites in northern Greece; Alyki, Epanomi, Keramoti and Lagos. These had different habitats and levels of human disturbance. The density of tortoises larger than 10cm was similar at all…

Small experimental plots in mixed-wood stands of the Acadian Forest were burned in the spring, summer, and autumn to obtain an estimate of the regrowth potential of common forest understory species. The number of stems was measured before burning and then monthly for 5 months…

From the text:'The peat in many parts of Britain is being severly eroded by subaerial forces, but the fire provides a method of erosion not previously emphasized. It removes whole tracts of peat and plant cover in a matter of days and permits intensive erosion for several years…

Nonriparian woodlands occur on escarpments and other topographic break throughout the grassland province of central North America. Grassland vegetation is mainly correlated with gently sloping or flat terrain mantled by deep, transported soils of Pleistocene or younger age.…

In planning for sagebrush control, the following items should be considered: (1) Where, (2) when, (3) how, (4) grazing management afterward, and (5) the need for regrassing afterward. The purpose of this bulletin is to make information on these items available for use by…

Emission factors and the size distribution for smoke particles from prescribed fire are described from data collected by airborne sampling, surface sampling using towers, and combustion hood systems. Emission factors for particulate matter (g/kg) range from 4 to 16 for particles…

The mature forest tree is an outstanding example of the interaction between the hereditary characteristics of an organism and its environment. The tiny embryo of the seed of the giant sequoia contains the potential to develop into the most majestic of plants. But if the…

The advent of 'fire management' has increased the need to understand and predict fire effects on vegetation. Such prediction is greatly complicated by the many factors that influence fire characteristics and plant response. Nevertheless, a few approaches have been developed to…

Data on lumber, chip and sawdust vol. recovery and lumber value were analysed for live and fire-killed Picea glauca trees from an experimental forest area near Fairbanks. The dead trees were sampled either 2 yr or 3 yr after the fire in order to evaluate the effects of…
