Microtesla
One microtesla is equal to one millionth of a tesla (1e-6 teslas).
History: Earth's geomagnetic field is about 25 to 65 microteslas, making this scale practical for environmental fields.
Current use: Used for geomagnetism, compass calibration, electromagnetic exposure measurements, and weak-field sensors.
Also written as uT.
Gauss
One gauss is equal to 0.0001 teslas.
History: Named after the German mathematician and physicist Carl Friedrich Gauss.
Current use: Commonly used in small magnet measurements, earth's magnetic field studies, and sensors.
Also written as G.
