Acre foot
One acre-foot is the volume of water that stands over one acre of land if the water is one foot deep. Since there are 43,560 square feet in an acre and the total volume is area times depth, an acre-foot equals 43,560 cubic feet.An acre of land with water one foot deep on it has a volume of water given byVolume = (Area) (Average depth)1 acre-foot = (43,560 ft2) (1 ft)= (43,560 ft3)Since there are roughly 7.5 gallons in a cubic foot1 acre-foot = 326,700 gallonsStanding water volumeThe following calculator predicts the volume of water standing on a given area where the depth is also given. First, select the units you want to use from the pull down menus. Then enter the values on the left and the calculator will give the value on the right.
Converting from one volume unit to anotherThe following calculator allows one to put in a volume unit on the left side and find the equivalent value in another unit on the right. First, select the units you want to use from the pull down menus. Then enter the value on the left and the calculator will give the equivalent on the right.
