What does the stere unit measure?

The stere measures the volume of stacked wood or bulk materials, including the air spaces between them, equal to one cubic metre.

Why convert stere to acre-foot (US survey)?

This helps compare or integrate volumes of stacked materials and water for applications in forestry, agriculture, and water resource management.

How to Convert from Stere [st] to Acre-foot (US survey)?

Q: What is an acre-foot (US survey)?

It is a unit of volume equal to the amount of water covering one acre to a depth of one US survey foot, about 1,233.5 cubic metres.

Convert volume measurements from stere (st), a metric unit for stacked wood or bulk materials, to acre-foot (US survey), a unit used for measuring water volumes over land. Learn practical use cases, conversion details, and important considerations.

What Is This Tool?

This converter transforms volume values from stere, a metric measurement commonly used for stacked wood and other bulk materials, into acre-foot (US survey), a unit for measuring water volumes covering one acre to a depth of one US survey foot.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the volume value in stere (st)
Select stere as the 'from' unit
Select acre-foot (US survey) as the 'to' unit
Click convert to get the equivalent volume in acre-foot (US survey)

Key Features

Converts stere (st) to acre-foot (US survey) reliably
Supports volume conversions relevant to forestry, water resource management, and agriculture
Easy-to-use interface suitable for various professional fields
Based on precise unit definitions and conversion rate

Examples

Converting 10 stere results in 0.008107083 acre-foot (US survey)
Converting 1000 stere results in 0.8107083 acre-foot (US survey)

Common Use Cases

Selling and invoicing firewood based on stacked wood volume
Estimating timber or woodfuel quantities in forestry and wood processing
Measuring water stored in reservoirs and dams for resource management
Reporting irrigation water deliveries and agricultural water rights
Planning municipal or regional water supply and consumption volumes

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure input values use the stere unit to reflect stacked volume, not just solid material
Understand that acre-foot (US survey) corresponds specifically to water volume over one acre at a depth of one US survey foot
Use the conversion for comparing forestry volumes with water resource data carefully, considering unit context
Account for small differences due to US survey foot variations when integrating data from different sources

Limitations

The stere measures volume including air spaces in stacked materials, not just solid volume
Acre-foot (US survey) unit is specific and may not align exactly with other acre-foot definitions
Minor discrepancies may occur due to differences between US survey foot and international foot
Conversion assumes standard conditions without adjustments for temperature or pressure affecting volume
