Convert Microsiemens per metre to Gigasiemens per metre
Convert Microsiemens per metre (µS/m) to Gigasiemens per metre (GS/m) instantly and accurately.
Conversion Formula
GS/m = µS/m × 1.000000000e-15
About Microsiemens per metre
The microsiemens per metre (µS/m) equals 10⁻⁶ S/m, the scale for freshwater lakes and rivers (100-2 000 µS/m) and weakly mineralised groundwater. It is the SI-coherent companion to the more commonly measured µS/cm: divide a µS/cm reading by 100 to obtain µS/m. 1 µS/m = 10⁻⁶ S/m = 0.01 µS/cm.
About Gigasiemens per metre
The gigasiemens per metre (GS/m) equals 10⁹ S/m, relevant for cryogenically cooled pure metals. Pure aluminium at 4 K reaches ≈10 GS/m; pure copper near 4 K approaches ≈60 GS/m. RF cryogenic resonator design and superconductor proximity-effect modelling use GS/m to benchmark normal-metal residual losses. 1 GS/m = 10⁹ S/m = 10³ MS/m.
