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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

The development of deep organic layers in the overmature spruce stands of the east slope Foothills Section is viewed as site degradation and a serious impediment to the establishment of regeneration following clear-cutting. Low soil temperature beneath this organic layer is…

The combustion products (smoke) from forest wildfires or prescribed burns are often considered on a par with any other emission that might affect air quality. But enough is known about smoke from woody fuels to indicate that its importance is limited almost entirely to…

Lait, Taylor
Describes the application, in the boreal forest, of Australian methods of counter-firing by incendiary capsules dropped from helicopters [cf. FA 32, 945]. A prototype machine was developed for the priming and release of the capsules, since these operations are slow and awkward…
