|---|
|
A gravimeter is used to measure accelerations due to the gravitational field of the earth. The gravimeter on board of Polarstern is situated on a gyro-stabilized platform to compensate for the ships ship's movement. It is a spring and mass system with magnetic compensation, the length extension of the spring being proportional to the gravitationgravitational force. |
