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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

Influence of smoke exposure on soil enzyme activities and nitrification

Li, Fredrickson, Ligotke, Van Voris, Rogers
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…

Regrowth of forest understory species following seasonal burning

Flinn, Wein
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…

Thoughts on forest productivity as related to slash burning and other forest practices

DeBell
Three aspects of forest productivity are important in making decisions on slash burning: (1) the risk of losing past productivity accumulated in adjacent stands, (2) productivity of the next timber crop, and (3) long-term soil productivity. Existing knowledge and experience…

A dimensionless correlation for the spread of wind-driven fires

Nelson, Adkins
Data for the behavior of 59 experimental wind-driven fires were extracted from the literature for use in determining a correlation among several variables known to influence the rate of forest fire spread. Also included in the correlation were unpublished data from six field…

Optimisation of fuel reduction burning regimes for carbon, water and vegetation outcomes

Gharun, Possell, Bell, Adams
Fire plays a critical role in biodiversity, carbon balance, soil erosion, and nutrient and hydrological cycles. While empirical evidence shows that fuel reduction burning can reduce the incidence, severity and extent of unplanned fires in Australia and elsewhere, the integration…

A critique of the historical-fire-regime concept in conservation

Freeman, Kobziar, Rose, Cropper
Prescribed fire is widely accepted as a conservation tool because fire is essential to the maintenance of native biodiversity in many terrestrial communities. Approaches to this land-management technique vary greatly among continents, and sharing knowledge internationally can…

Fire reduces fungal species richness and in situ mycorrhizal colonization: a meta-analysis

Dove, Hart
Soil fungal communities perform many functions that help plants meet their nutritional demands. However, overall trends for fungal response to fire, which can be especially critical in a post-fire context, have been difficult to elucidate. We used meta-analytical techniques to…
