What is an exaliter (EL)?

An exaliter is an SI-derived volume unit equal to 10^18 litres, used for extremely large volumes like planetary water or atmosphere measurements.

What is a megaliter (ML)?

A megaliter is a metric unit equal to 1,000,000 litres, commonly used in hydrology and engineering to express large water volumes.

Why convert exaliters to megaliters?

This conversion helps translate vast planetary-scale volume data into more manageable units for water resource management and engineering applications.
