About these units
Denarius (Biblical Roman) (denarius)
The denarius, about 3.9–4.5 grams, was the standard Roman silver coin of the early empire and appears frequently in the New Testament. It was considered a typical day's wage for a laborer, providing historians with a powerful economic reference point. As a mass unit, the denarius represents a consistent silver weight upon which Roman taxation and commercial pricing depended. Its stability made it a backbone of Roman monetary policy. Its appearance in religious texts shows how deeply embedded Roman economics were in the daily lives of conquered regions.
Teragram (Tg)
A teragram equals 1,000 gigagrams, or 10⁹ kilograms. It is widely used in climatology, atmospheric science, and ecology to describe the mass of carbon, nitrogen, methane, or other substances exchanged annually between Earth's systems. For example, global carbon fluxes—movement of carbon between oceans, atmosphere, and biosphere—are typically measured in teragrams. Volcanoes, wildfires, and anthropogenic emissions often release substances on this scale. Tg-level measurements give researchers insight into the stability, sustainability, and long-term trends of Earth's ecosystems.
