Abstract
This dataset contains bulk electrical conductivity of saturated soils (σb) and soil water retention measurements for fine-textured soils, including clay loam and silty clay loam textures at multiple bulk densities ranging from 1.32 to 1.48 g cm⁻³. The data include saturated electrical conductivity measurements along with soil water retention curves (SWRC) for each soil type. Electrical conductivity was measured using an LCR meter, and soil water retention was determined using a pressure plate apparatus. This dataset can be used to estimate van Genuchten model parameters and to investigate the relationship between bulk electrical conductivity and soil hydraulic properties in fine-textured soils.

Dataset Title Linking Bulk Electrical Conductivity to Pore-Size Distribution and Water Conductivity in Saturated Fine-Textured Soils Description This dataset contains the experimental data used in the manuscript entitled: "Linking Bulk Electrical Conductivity to Pore-Size Distribution and Water Conductivity in Saturated Fine-Textured Soils" The dataset consists of soil physical properties, electrical conductivity measurements, and water retention curve data collected from fine-textured soil samples. File Contents Excel Workbook The Excel workbook contains three worksheets: 1. Soil properties This worksheet contains the physical and basic properties of the soil samples used in the study. Variables may include texture fractions, bulk density, particle density, porosity, and other measured soil characteristics. 2. Water retention curve data This worksheet contains water retention measurements used to characterize pore-size distribution and hydraulic behavior of the studied soils. 3. Electrical conductivity data This worksheet contains measured electrical conductivity data used for evaluating relationships between bulk electrical conductivity, and water conductivity. Data Collection Data were collected through laboratory analyses conducted on saturated fine-textured soil samples. Standard soil physics and electrical conductivity measurement procedures were used. Data Usage The dataset supports all analyses, figures, tables, and conclusions presented in the associated manuscript. Units Units for each variable are provided in the corresponding worksheet headers.
