gigaliter to teraliter
Convert gigaliter (GL) to teraliter (TL). Use an editable volume converter, conversion formula, and reference table.
1 GL = 0.001 TL
Conversion formula
One gigaliter equals 0.001 teraliter. Multiply your value in gigaliter by this factor to get teraliter. For the reverse conversion, divide by the same factor.
Worked example
To convert 5 gigaliter:5 × 0.001 = 0.005 TL

About these measurements
Volume describes three-dimensional space or liquid capacity.
The base reference used here is the liter. One gigaliter is 1,000,000,000 base units; one teraliter is 1e+12 base units.
Important distinctions
US liquid measures and Imperial measures are different. Dry gallons and recipe cups are excluded.
Precision
The converter uses stored conversion factors and floating-point arithmetic. Results display up to ten significant digits, switching to scientific notation for very small or large values. Keep the precision of your original measurement when reporting results.
