About these units
Bekan (Biblical Hebrew) (bekan)
The bekan (or beka) is a half-shekel unit, approximately 5.6 grams. It appears in the Hebrew Bible as the required contribution for the census tax, symbolizing equality among contributors regardless of wealth. As a practical unit, the beka was useful for small-scale offerings, jewelry, and silverwork. Its precise half-shekel value made it easy to incorporate into the larger Hebrew weight structure. The bekan highlights how weights were intertwined with religious observance and communal obligations in ancient Israelite society.
Teragram (Tg)
A teragram equals 1,000 gigagrams, or 10⁹ kilograms. It is widely used in climatology, atmospheric science, and ecology to describe the mass of carbon, nitrogen, methane, or other substances exchanged annually between Earth's systems. For example, global carbon fluxes—movement of carbon between oceans, atmosphere, and biosphere—are typically measured in teragrams. Volcanoes, wildfires, and anthropogenic emissions often release substances on this scale. Tg-level measurements give researchers insight into the stability, sustainability, and long-term trends of Earth's ecosystems.
