What is an acre-foot (US survey)?

An acre-foot (US survey) represents the volume of water that covers one acre of land to a depth of one US survey foot, equal to 43,560 cubic US survey feet.

What does quart (UK) measure?

The quart (UK) is an imperial volume unit equal to one quarter of an imperial gallon, exactly 1.1365225 litres, traditionally used in British liquid volume measurements.

Why convert from acre-foot (US survey) to quart (UK)?

This conversion helps relate large water volumes commonly used in water management to smaller, traditional British units used in cooking, historical labeling, or legacy contexts.

Is quart (UK) commonly used in science today?

No, quart (UK) is mostly obsolete in scientific and engineering work, which now generally use litres or cubic metres.

Are conversions from acre-foot to quart precise for operational water management?

Such conversions are primarily informational since precision requirements in water management often exceed the granularity of quart (UK).
