heal.abstract	The paper presents the drying portions of the soil-water characteristic curves of five soils from Greece, along with the void ratio vs suction curves over the same drying portion, the one-dimensional compression curves of the same soils and their comparison. The curves were measured using the pressure plate extractor technique. The soils tested included one silt, two clays and two marls. Soil specimens used for soil-water characteristic curve determination were first reconstituted, reconsolidated under one-dimensional conditions to the in-situ vertical stress of each soil, and then unloaded. Undisturbed samples were available for one soil as well and the drying portion of the undisturbed material was measured for this soil too. The soil-water characteristic curve data presented are the first for soils from Greece and among the few presented for marls. © 2008 Taylor & Francis Group, London.	en
