Conversion Formula
mS/m = µS/cm × 0.1
About Microsiemens per centimetre
The microsiemens per centimetre (µS/cm) equals 10⁻⁴ S/m and is the standard unit for drinking-water conductivity monitoring (50-800 µS/cm) and surface-water quality surveys. Regulatory thresholds for potable water are often set in µS/cm; hand-held probes for aquaculture and hydroponics report in µS/cm. 1 µS/cm = 100 µS/m = 10⁻⁴ S/m.
About Millisiemens per metre
The millisiemens per metre (mS/m) equals 10⁻³ S/m and is the preferred unit in geophysical electromagnetic induction surveys (EM-31, EM-38) for soil and shallow-subsurface conductivity mapping. Agricultural soil reads 5-200 mS/m; saline soils exceed 400 mS/m; near-surface marine sediments reach 1 000 mS/m. 1 mS/m = 10⁻³ S/m = 10 µS/cm.
