About these units
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.
Cup (Metric) (cup)
A metric cup is defined as 250 mL, differing from both the US cup (236.588 mL) and the UK cup (284 mL). Used extensively in Australia, New Zealand, Canada (informally), and some European cooking contexts, the metric cup provides a clean, simple unit that aligns perfectly with decimal scaling. Its adoption reduces confusion in international recipe exchange and demonstrates the value of standardization for global culinary communication.
