The litre (Commonwealth spelling) or liter (American spelling) (SI symbols L and l, [1] other symbol used: ℓ) is a metric unit of volume. It is equal to 1 cubic decimetre (dm 3 ), 1000 cubic centimetres (cm 3 ) or 0.001 cubic metres (m 3 ).
Metric regions commonly use the tonne of oil equivalent (toe), or more often million toe (Mtoe). Since this is a measurement of mass, any conversion to barrels of oil equivalent depends on the density of the oil in question, as well as the energy content. Typically 1 tonne of oil has a volume of 1.08 to 1.19 cubic metres (6.8 to 7.5 bbl).

One acre-foot/year is approximately 119 cu ft/d (3.38 m 3 /d). The acre-foot per year has been used historically in the US in many water-management agreements, for example the Colorado River Compact, which divides 15 million acre-feet per year (19 cubic kilometres per year) among seven western US states.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency reported Monday that it had delivered about 1 million liters of water and more than 600,000 meals to North Carolina. More than 5,000 households have ...
The tonne of oil equivalent (toe) is a unit of energy defined as the amount of energy released by burning one tonne of crude oil.It is approximately 42 gigajoules or 11.630 megawatt-hours, although as different crude oils have different calorific values, the exact value is defined by convention; several slightly different definitions exist.
The Bubble Nebula (NGC 7635) at left with about 520 cubic light years (4.4 × 10 50 m 3) dwarfs the Dumbbell Nebula's 12 cubic light years (1 × 10 49 m 3) (very approximate figures) The globular cluster Messier 5 at upper left with about 2 million cubic light years (1.7 × 10 54 m 3) dwarfs the much smaller Bubble Nebula at lower right.
