About these units
Gigaliter (GL)
A gigaliter equals one billion liters or one million cubic meters. It is widely used when discussing very large natural or artificial water systems. Countries quantify national water reserves, lake capacities, and large-scale water transfers in gigaliters. For example, major reservoirs, such as those used for hydroelectric power generation, often have volumes in the tens of gigaliters. Environmental scientists use GL to describe groundwater extraction, rainfall totals across large regions, and freshwater availability. The GL helps quantify planetary-scale hydrological processes in a manageable numerical range.
Hundred-Cubic Foot (100 ft³)
This is simply another expression of 100 cubic feet, used in billing systems, engineering calculations, and pipeline monitoring. Where the abbreviation CCF is standard for water utilities, many technical publications explicitly use "100 ft³" to avoid ambiguity. Engineers working on ventilation systems, gas pipelines, or storage capacities may choose this form for clarity in calculations. Its simplicity and direct reference to cubic feet make it a universally understood expression in industries that rely on imperial volume measurement.
