Absolute gravimetry was introduced into the WYEPEA gravity control in 1990, within the frame of a cooperation project between the Institute of Seismology, State Seismological Bureau (ISSSB), Wuhan, and the Institut für Erdmessung (IfE), University of Hannover, Germany. Three observation campaigns were performed (1990, 1992, 1995) employing the JILAG-3 absolute gravity meter of IfE. Six absolute stations have been established in the area, and additional absolute measurements were carried out in the reference stations Beijing, Wuhan, and Kunming. Relative gravity measurements between the absolute stations served for an independent control and connect the existing GPS control network to the gravity net. In addition, a micro gravity net and a vertical gravity gradient line have been established and remeasured, in order to study local gravity variations at selected fault zones. The accuracy of the absolute gravity results is estimated to ±0.05 µms- while the repeatability is slightly better. In the local systems a relative accuracy of ±0.01 ... 0.03 µms- has been achieved. Large-scale gravity variations with time could not be detected between 1990 and 1995, but local changes due to groundwater-table variations or seismic activity may reach 0.1µms-. In the local systems small gravity changes have been found, with a certain correlation to tectonic structures. The report presents the final results of the project, especially station descriptions and gravity values for the epochs 1990, 1992, and 1995. It thus will serve as a basis for future gravity campaigns, and analyzing gravity changes which might be detected then.
