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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

Postfire recovery of biomass and soil organic pools was measured in a sequence of 10 subarctic lichen woodlands aged from 0 to 140 years. Less than one-tenth of total live biomass combusted at the time of burning. Aboveground biomass combustion of species ranged from nil to over…

The calculation of heat release rate by oxygen consumption is based on the assumption that all materials release approximately the same amount of heat per unit mass of oxygen consumed. This technique is now being employed to determine the heat release rate of materials in…

Tiedemann, Helvey
During the 2 years after a severe wildfire, concentration of nitrate-N increased from pre-fire levels of 0.015 ppm to 0.56 ppm on a burned, unfertilized watershed and to 0.54 ppm and 1.47 ppm on watersheds that were burned and fertilized with 54 kg/ha of N as ammonium sulfate…
