About Cubic Kilometers
A cubic kilometre (km³) = 10⁹ m³ = 10¹² L. Lake Baikal: 23,615 km³ (world's largest freshwater lake by volume). Amazon River discharge: ~6,600 km³/year. Earth's total freshwater: ~35,000,000 km³; oceans: ~1,335,000,000 km³. Glaciologists track polar ice-sheet losses in km³/year as a key climate metric. 1 km³ = 10⁹ m³.
About Quarts
A quart (qt) is a US customary volume unit equal to 2 pints or 4 cups - approximately 946.353 mL (just under one liter). Motor oil, paint, and large containers of juice or milk are commonly sold by the quart in the United States. The term 'quart' derives from the Latin 'quartus' (fourth), as it is one quarter of a gallon. The US liquid quart (946 mL) differs from the UK imperial quart (1136 mL). Engine coolant, transmission fluid, and many automotive products are measured and sold in quart containers in the US. Four quarts equal one US gallon.
