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 The database provides a listing of fire research publications relevant to Alaska and a venue for sharing unpublished agency reports and works in progress that are not normally found in the published literature.

Prescribed burning under mature Larch/Douglas‐fir forests produced changes in elemental uptake. Elemental analyses of individual species and existing biomass three years post‐burn from hot, medium, and lightly burned sites and unburned controls showed a significant shift in…

In order to study the effect of fire on soil properties of a mixed Pinus halepensis Mill. and Quercus calliprinos Webb. forest, pH, organic matter, total and available nitrogen [(N, N-NH4 and N-(NO3+NO2)] and phosphorus and soluble cations (K, Mg, and Ca) were determined from…

Plants of the prairie peninsula have persisted in southwestern Ontario in localized areas where a high water table in spring, severe drought in midsummer, and intermittent burning have limited forest encroachment. Unlike these relicts of the postglacial xerothermic period, a…

Wildfires after prolonged drought consume quantities of fallen trees and soil organic layers. We hypothesized that conflicts within the literature about establishment success of conifers on the resulting ash were a result of the different types of ash used (from wood or peat)…

Some consider that Douglas-fir seedlings initially grow better on burned than on similar but unburned soil. The improved growth is attributed to an increase in available nutrients as a result of combustion and to a release from vegetative competition. Since opinions differ…

Antelope bitterbrush is a widely adapted shrub occuring throughout the western United States. The many ecotypes of bitterbrush differ in growth habit, growth rate, fire tolerance, drought resistance, palatability, and numerous other attributes. Many also show specific…

Distribution of N, P, K, Ca, and Mg in the tree, understory, forest floor, and mineral soil horizons was determined for two series of postfire foerest stands in northeastern New Brunswick. Twelve pure jack pine stands (Pinus banksiana Lamb.) and 11 mixed hardwood stands aged 7-…

Measurements of the ignition time and surface temperature, at the time of ignition for cellulosic fuels in varying atmospheric environments were made in order to help illuminate the mechanism responsible for the spontaneous ignition of these materials exposed to thermal…

A 20-year-old aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) ecosystem was subjected to two cutting and two burning treatments. Cutting and prescribed burning were carried out on separate areas. One cutting and one burning treatment was applied both before and after spring leaf flush. An…

A stainless steel laboratory chamber to hold the entire combustion products from a small scale pine needle fire was useful for measuring the photochemical activity of pine needle fire smoke. Particle size distributions indicated that the nucleation of small numbers of submicron…

Uncontrolled fires, sweeping over vast areas of the interior nearly every summer, place in jeopardy the future economic development of that portion of Alaska. The area involved is vast but the resources that can be used in perpetuity, even under wise management, are relatively…

On January 6, 2010, the EPA proposed to strengthen the national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) for ground-level ozone. EPA also proposed an accelerated implementation schedule as part of this Rule. The primary standard is designed to protect public health and the proposal…

In this study, we focus on clarifying the contribution of wildfire on N dry deposition in a boreal forest of interior Alaska, by applying CASTNET data and multiple regression analysis against climate data. Here we set two working hypothesis: 1) Long-range transportation, rain…

Identifying indicators of state change and forecasting future vulnerability in Alaskan boreal forest
This research is designed to understand the mechanistic connections among vegetation, the organic soil layer, and permafrost ground stability in Alaskan boreal ecosystems. Understanding these linkages is critical for projecting the impact of climate change on permafrost in…
