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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

From the text: 'The insulating properties of the bark influence the relative resistance of various species of trees. Within a species the tree with the thickest bark is afforded the best protection. Other factors such as bark character and structure are also of significance.…

From the summary ... 'This paper describes a simple model which can be used to investigate the transport of water vapour by thermal plumes in the atmosphere. For an approximate treatment of these plumes, it is assumed (as in a previous paper) that the vertical velocity,…

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…

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…

[from the text] Transitions from one sort of vegetation to another-tension zones they have been called-are places of unusual interest to botanists. For along these lines, if they be in fact under tension from the struggles of diverse plants for ascendency, are afforded our best…

Liebig's Law of Minimum may be phrased as follows (see Chapman, ;31, p. 107): When a multiplicity of factors is present and only one is near the limits of toleration, this one factor will be the controlling one. The importance of extremes in environmental influences apparently…
