Abstract
Software- and hardware-based methods of compensation for dynamic errors of the marine gravimeters caused by inertial accelerations are considered. The error due to the fluid damping of the gravimeter sensing element is analyzed and taken into account for the first time. Some results of gravity measurements that confirm the increase in gravimeter accuracy are presented.
