What exactly is an acre-foot (US survey)?

It is a unit of volume representing the amount of water covering one acre to a depth of one US survey foot, equal to 43,560 cubic US survey feet.

Why convert acre-feet to microliters?

This conversion is useful to translate large water volumes into very small volumes needed for laboratory or microfluidic analyses.

Is this conversion practical for everyday use?

No, due to the big difference in scale, it is primarily used in specialized scientific, engineering, and water management contexts.
