What are Acre-foot and Cubic Decimeter

Definition of Acre-foot

An acre-foot is a volume measurement used primarily in the United States to evaluate large-scale water resources. It represents the volume of water that would cover an acre of land to a depth of one foot, equivalent to 43,560 cubic feet or about 1,233 cubic meters.

Definition of Cubic Decimeter

A cubic decimeter is a unit of volume representing a cube with sides of one decimeter in length. This metric volume unit equates to one liter, consisting of 1,000 cubic centimeters. It is often used in scientific and everyday contexts to measure liquids and other substances.
