About these units
Nanoliter (nL)
A nanoliter equals 10⁻⁹ liters and is commonly used in molecular biology, PCR (polymerase chain reaction), and analytical chemistry. Reaction volumes in high-throughput screening and micro-assays are frequently in nanoliters to conserve expensive reagents. In environmental science, trace samples of pollutants or micro-droplets in aerosols may be measured in nanoliters. Nanoliter volumes also arise in precision drug delivery systems and biomedical implants. The nanoliter represents a critical compromise between practical handling and microscopic precision, making it a cornerstone of modern microfluidic research.
Acre-Inch (ac*in)
An acre-inch equals 1/12 of an acre-foot, representing the water required to cover one acre to a depth of one inch. Irrigation planners and farmers often use acre-inches to fine-tune watering schedules for crops. Because plants require precise hydration, the acre-inch allows for granular control of irrigation needed for soil management and crop health. Agronomists also use acre-inches to convert rainfall into usable water volume estimates for agricultural regions, linking meteorology with farm management.
