Abstract
We study the gravitational wave memory effect in spacetimes related to flat space by a conformal transformation. The discussion is general but the gravitational wave length scale is assumed to be small compared with the background curvature radius. The general formulas are applied to Friedmann-Robertson-Walker metrics of all spatial curvatures. The effect of new terms stemming from spatial curvature is potentially detectable in future gravitational wave measurements.
