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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

[Annotation copied from Lynham et al. 2002] The nature and extent of fire impact on boreal forest humus profiles is described. Recolonisation by moss, lichen and higher plants on sites of various age provide varied litters to supplement surviving...

This chapter begins with a review of northern fuels and fire behaviour, and stresses the general uniformity of all spreading fires in vegetation, the two limiting criteria being the rate of forward heat transfer and fuel quality. Five classes of fire...

An introduction to the spatial and temporal diversity of fire is given for northern circumpolar ecosystems. Both physical and biological parameters make northern ecosystems different from those in temperate regions; these parameters, such as long day...

Throughout the boreal circumpolar North almost all terrestrial ecosystems exhibit soil organic matter accumulation, with increased accumulation at higher soil moisture levels. Fire frequencies in organic terrain are very low compared with drier...

Knowledge of the post-glacial fire history assists in understanding ecological questions such as succession and stability of the vegetation mosaic, the dependence of flora on fire, and ecological consequences of fires to lakes and bogs. This...
