What is a teraliter used for?

A teraliter is used to express very large volumes such as lake capacities, regional water budgets, and continental-scale resource estimates.

How many megaliters equal one teraliter?

One teraliter equals one million megaliters.

Can this conversion be used for small water volumes?

No, because teraliters represent extremely large volumes, this conversion is not suitable for small water volume measurements.
