Abstract
Some time ago, Romberg (1956/57) pointed out the advantage of reading horizontal gravity gradients rather than vertical gradients with the gravity meter. Several years later, in March, 1960, an experimental profile of gravity‐meter‐determined horizontal gradients was run for the author in the South Houston field by courtesy of Texas Instruments Incorporated. Since then, this gradient technique was repeatedly discussed but only very few results could be published (Thyssen‐Bornemisza et al., 1960, 1962a, 1962b). Stackler (1963) more recently pointed out again the value of the average gravity gradient for reconnaissance surveys predominantly in inaccessible areas.
