Recent Examples of gravimeterSatellites have allowed scientists to overcome the limits of a sparse network of tide gauges and gravimeters, along the coasts and on midocean islands, finally supplying continuous—and nearly global—sea-level data, Hardenberg writes.—Bruce Dorminey, Forbes, 23 Jan. 2025 The researchers’ simulations found that such signals could be detectable in orbital data from Global Navigation Satellite Systems, as well as gravimeters that measure variations in Earth’s gravitational field.—Clara Moskowitz, Scientific American, 24 Sep. 2024 Also at Rimpac, Vector Atomic demonstrated a compact quantum gravimeter paired with a standard inertial navigation system that promises to allow naval ships to navigate without GPS.—Jeremy Bogaisky, Forbes, 13 Feb. 2023 Enviroscan’s gravimeter also indicated a large metallic mass with the density of gold, according to Warren Getler, who worked closely with the Paradas and the FBI.—Time, 9 Mar. 2021 Enviroscan’s gravimeter also indicated a large metallic mass with the density of gold, according to Warren Getler, who worked closely with the Paradas and the FBI.—Time, 9 Mar. 2021 Enviroscan’s gravimeter also indicated a large metallic mass with the density of gold, according to Warren Getler, who worked closely with the Paradas and the FBI.—Time, 9 Mar. 2021 Enviroscan’s gravimeter also indicated a large metallic mass with the density of gold, according to Warren Getler, who worked closely with the Paradas and the FBI.—Time, 9 Mar. 2021 John Louie, a geophysics professor at the University of Nevada, Reno, unconnected to the dig, said the gravimeter is a powerful tool that can yield important clues about what’s underground.—Time, 9 Mar. 2021
