What is a ton register?

A ton register is a maritime volume unit equal to 100 cubic feet, historically used to measure a ship’s internal capacity.

When should I convert ton register to cubic mile?

Use this conversion when you need to relate historic ship volume data to large-scale volumetric contexts like environmental or geological measurements.

Why is the converted cubic mile value so small?

Because cubic miles represent extremely large volumes, small ton register values convert into very small decimal numbers.
