Tools exist for calculating the strength of gravity at various cities around the world. [16] The effect of latitude can be clearly seen with gravity in high-latitude cities: Anchorage (9.826 m/s 2 ), Helsinki (9.825 m/s 2 ), being about 0.5% greater than that in cities near the equator: Kuala Lumpur (9.776 m/s 2 ).
