Abstract This ERS-1 SAR interferogram shows a glacier-free area inland (north) of the Chugach Mountains. The wide, curving feature with broad, bright fringes is the Chitina River Valley, which has a slope roughly similar to the Bagley Icefield. The fringes represent elevation differences, not surface motion. The broad nature of the elevation fringes shows that the tightly-spaced fringes on Bagley Icefield and its tributaries primarily represent ice movement
