Effects of microplastics on soil water retention characteristics

Data was collected in a water retention curve determination done for the laboratory-packed cylinders using sieved and homogenized soils collected from PAPILLONS field experiment sites and LUFA soil. Data includes characteristics of the four studied soils, volumetric water contents of control soils and soils amended with conventional or biodegradable microplastics (three concentrations and four replicates) with in suction pressures of 0.1, 0.3, 6.3, 10, 20, 32, 100, 320, 1600 and 39,000 kPa.
