    Here is 5

    Dissolved Load - elements dissolved in solution

    Suspended Load - very fine grained sediment such as clay and silt carried in suspension. The size grains that can be carried in suspension are dependent on the current velocity

    Wash Load - a subset of the suspension load, extremely small particles (clay) that will remain in suspension independent of turbulence in the river

    Saltation Load - particles that are temporarily carried in suspension but move by bouncing along the bottom

    Bed Load - sediment that moves by rolling or sliding along the bottom. These are generally the coarser grained sediments such as sand and gravel.
