Go-around limited weight is what is limited by the selected (2.5% in your case) go-around climb gradient. Approach climb likely refers to the CS25 certification requirement of 2.1% climb gradient during a go-around with OEI (assuming you're flying a twin), and similarly for the landing climb - 3.2% with all engines operating.
Thanks for the clarification. I understand that the Approach and Landing climb gradients are fixed regulatory values used to demonstrate that the aircraft meets a minimum certification climb performance requirements.
The Go-Around, on the other hand, represents the 'operational limit' determined by the specific airport or procedure, but it must still meet at least the 2.5% minimum climb gradient. Is that correct?
