About these units
Pint (US) (pt (US))
A US pint equals 16 US fluid ounces, or about 473 milliliters. It is used extensively for beverages, dairy products, and food portions. Although derived from British systems, the US pint differs significantly from the UK pint, a discrepancy that often surprises international travelers. The US pint's prevalence in beer, ice cream, and milk packaging ties it closely to American food culture. In cooking and bartending, the pint provides a practical intermediate size, bridging the gap between cups and quarts. Its continued use reflects how cultural and culinary habits shape measurement preferences.
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.
