The third issue of Al’manac of Modem Metrology is a thematic one and it is dedicated to gravimetric and gradiometric measurements, development of the metrology base in this field, and solving its technical, organizational and legal issues. The contributions are based on papers presented in the scientific seminar “Contemporary state and prospects of space gravimetry and gradiometry” organized by VNIIFTRI and attended by specialists of institutes of the Russian Academy of Sciences, the Lomonosov Moscow State University, and industrial organizations active in the field of space geodesy and gravimetry.

The first issue of the Al’manac contains articles on fundamental and applied research in metrology, particularly in the field of optical frequency standards, the methodology of physical measurements. It provides results from metrological studies in time and frequency, underwater acoustical and dielectric measurements and acquaints the reader with pursuit and new solutions in these areas. Much focus is given to topical issues such as measurement of the parameters of the human environment. Modern problems related to verification activity and practical metrology, primarily the creation of a standard base for metrological assurance of the food industry, are discussed.
The Al’manac introduces readers to new books on metrology.
