About these units
Petagram (Pg)
A petagram, equal to 10¹² kilograms, is used almost exclusively in global environmental science and earth system modeling. Planetary-scale carbon budgets—for example, the total carbon stored in Earth's soils or forests—are expressed in petagrams. The Amazon rainforest alone holds on the order of 100 Pg of carbon. Using petagrams helps researchers track changes in Earth's climate balance and evaluate feedback loops in the carbon cycle.
UK Ton (Long) (ton (UK))
The British long ton equals 2,240 pounds (1,016.0469088 kilograms). Historically used throughout the British Empire, it appears frequently in naval records, early engineering documents, and historical trade ledgers. The long ton's relation to the imperial hundredweight (112 pounds × 20) makes sense within the structure of older English measurement systems. Although replaced by metric tons in the UK, it persists in maritime contexts and in interpreting historical documents. Its presence captures the complexity of pre-metric trade and the need for careful interpretation when comparing international tonnage systems.
