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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

Control of brush and undesirable trees: IV: conservation in land clearing

Sampson, Schultz
From the text... 'The intimate relations of soil and climate, and the effects of land treatment on stream flow, have been recognized for decades. Since we live in an environment composed of many facets, the best pattern of land us is not always or immediately discernible. Too…

The deterioration by fungi of jack, red, and white pine killed by fire in Ontario

Basham
The nature, causes, and rate of pathological deterioration of jack, red, and white pine killed by fire in the Mississagi region of Ontario in 1948 were studied to determine the practicability and probable duration of profitable salvage operations in such stands. Blue and brown…

The Gordon Bade water rake

Reinhardt
Experienced fire control men who have used the water rake believe it is a practicable and worthwhile water-saving device. It is recommended for use where water is scarce and in deep duff where water penetration is slow. One water rake is recommended for each tanker unit in areas…

Extraction of ions from a flame

Deckers, van Tiggelen
A complete study of ionization in flames involves solution of the problems: (1) identification of the ions (as yet nothing definite is known about their nature); (2) evaluation of the ion concentration (even now there is still some disagreement concerning the exact amount of…

The pathological deterioration of fire-killed pine in the Mississagi region of Ontario [Chapter 18]

Basham
This study has defined actual reductions in recoverable merchantable volumes per acre in fire-killed pine stands. It has demonstrated that, when more than two years have elapsed, reductions in yield of considerable magnitude due to deterioration as a direct or indirect result of…
