What is a quart (US)?

The US liquid quart (qt US) is a volume unit equal to one quarter of a US liquid gallon, exactly 0.946352946 liters or 57.75 cubic inches, distinct from the Imperial quart.

What does a cubic kilometer represent?

A cubic kilometer (km³) is an SI-derived volume unit representing the volume of a cube with sides of one kilometer, equal to one billion cubic meters or one trillion liters.

Why convert from quart (US) to cubic kilometer?

Conversions from quart to cubic kilometer help express small liquid volumes in terms of very large volume measures, useful in scientific contexts like hydrology and climate studies.
