Hi,
looks like µm/sec to me - or, what else should it be?!
Interesting to see that some institutes use such units...never saw this before.
Conversion is quite simple:
1 µm/sec = 3600 µm/hr
and
3600 µm/hr = 3.6 mm/hr = 0.36 cm/hr
Regards,
Rolf
P.S. I the use shortcut key ALT+0181 to produce the 'µ' symbol.
