Absolute Gravity

The value that denotes the density or specific gravity of a fluid at standard conditions; for gases, these conditions are standard atmospheric pressure (760 mmHg) at 0º C.

Nowadays, an accurate gravity network, based on absolute gravity values determined by modern free-fall gravimeters, provides an important reference frame for the quality check and the transformation of historical data to a modern gravity frame.

another aim is to develop a methodology for the determination of seasonal changes in gravity acceleration (mainly on the basis of experimentally verified hydrological influences) and to create a methodology for uniform processing of absolute gravity measurements (including both existing and newly discovered instrument repairs and local influence of the environment).
