Effect of Microplastics on Soil Water Retention Characteristics

European Journal of Soil Science, Volume 77, Issue 5, September–October 2026.
ABSTRACT Over the past decades, extensive consumption of plastics has led to the accumulation of microplastic (MP) particles in the environment, including in soils. This MP pollution may affect soil functioning by influencing soil properties such as water retention. Soil pore network, controlling water storage and transport, can be affected by external
