About these units

Dram (dr)

The fluid dram is a small historical unit equal to 1/8 of a US fluid ounce or 3.6967 mL (US), with slightly different imperial values. It originated in apothecaries and early pharmaceutical texts, where drams measured potent liquid medicines, tinctures, and extracts. In daily life, drams appeared in old cocktail recipes, medicinal syrups, and household remedies. However, the inconsistency between US and UK drams, along with the rise of the metric system, pushed it out of modern use. Today, the dram survives mostly in whiskey culture—where a "dram" informally means a small pour, not a precise measurement—and in historical studies of medicine.

Cubic Kilometer (km³)

A cubic kilometer represents one billion cubic meters, making it a colossal volume unit used in geology, hydrology, glaciology, and planetary science. Large lakes, ice sheets, magma chambers, and atmospheric water content are often measured in km³. Earth's total ocean volume—about 1.335 billion km³—illustrates the unit's utility in describing planetary-scale systems. The km³ gives scientists a manageable number when dealing with natural features too massive for cubic meters or liters to express conveniently.
