Suspended load is composed of fine sediment particles suspended and transported through the stream.

The color results from coatings of iron and manganese oxide on the sediment particles.

The urban uplands also provide the largest opportunity to reduce fine sediment particle and phosphorus contributions to the lake.

The particles are moved by cilia along grooves to the mouth where edible matter is separated from sediment particles.

Marine species are found mostly in between sediment particles, while terrestrial species live in the water films round grains of soil.

In fact it was the sediment particles attached to the shells which were producing the TL.

Some colonial sea anemones stiffen the mesoglea with sediment particles.

If sediment particles containing plutonium are able to dry on the banks of the river and become airborne, the public health ramifications could be serious.

In consequence the use of sedimentation columns or tubes to determine the fall velocities of sediment particles has become very popular.
