In geophysics, the free-air gravity anomaly, often simply called the free-air anomaly, is the measured gravity anomaly after a free-air correction is applied to correct for the elevation at which a measurement is made. The free-air correction does so by adjusting these measurements of gravity to what would have been measured at sea level.

“Grown beyond nature now, soft food for worms,
They lift frail heads in gravity and good faith.”
