How are the ionic or dissolved sediments carried in a stream released?

1 Answer

Answer :

Sediments are carried as the following loads: dissolved, suspended, and bed. A dissolved load is composed of ions in solution. These ions are usually carried in the water all the way to the ocean. ... Particles that are too large to be carried as suspended loads are bumped and pushed along the stream bed, called bed load.
