About these units
Knot (UK) (kt (UK))
The UK knot historically varied slightly from the international knot because the UK used different values for the nautical mile depending on era and maritime authority. Though the differences were minor, they mattered in navigation, where precision affects charting, dead reckoning, and ocean voyaging. Modern UK practice fully aligns with the international knot (1 nautical mile per hour), but historical documents and charts may reference older UK knot values. The knot's rich maritime heritage—used by sailors measuring speed with knotted ropes dragged along the water—makes it one of the oldest continuously used speed units.
Millimeter/Hour (mm/h)
A millimeter per hour is extraordinarily slow, used in geology, meteorology, and materials science to measure phenomena like soil creep, tectonic plate micro-motion, or extremely light precipitation (drizzle). In manufacturing, mm/h may describe slow deposition rates in thin-film fabrication or high-precision milling processes. Despite seeming negligible, speeds measured in mm/h can accumulate into significant changes over weeks, months, or years—making them essential for long-term studies.
