About these units
Gill (US) (gi)
The US gill equals 118.294 mL, representing one-quarter of a US pint. Historically used in measuring alcoholic beverages, the gill once played a significant role in tavern regulations, distilling, and bartending. Its usage declined sharply after Prohibition and continued to fade as ounces and milliliters became preferred for drink recipes and consumer packaging. However, some old cocktail manuals still specify gills, and certain traditional American spirits were originally bottled in gill-based volumes. The gill illustrates the rich historical diversity of volumetric units in American culinary and beverage culture.
Teraliter (TL)
A teraliter equals one trillion liters and is most often used in planetary science, hydrology, and climate modeling. Earth's oceans, glaciers, and atmospheric water content are sometimes described using teraliters, especially when modeling changes in global water distribution due to climate change. Although rarely encountered outside scientific literature, the TL provides crucial insight into large-scale resource balance, enabling researchers to track long-term storage and movement of Earth's water across millennia.
