Abstract

Evaporation from soils is critical for agricultural water management. This requires a clear understanding of the water retention and soil shrinkage behavior of soils during water escape and due to fertilizers usage. Based on laboratory testing, this paper provides a comprehensive dataset generated for the determination of the geotechnical properties of inert silty sand and active lean clay using distilled water and saline pore fluid under ambient conditions. The tests include fluid-independent general soil properties, fluid-dependent specific soil properties, low-demand evaporation as a baseline, and high-demand evaporation to capture summer.
