At 100 cm/s, for example, silt, sand, and medium gravel will be eroded from the stream bed and transported in suspension, coarse gravel will be held in suspension, pebbles will be both transported and deposited, and cobbles and boulders will remain stationary on the stream bed.
Stream competence refers to the heaviest particles a stream can carry. Stream competence depends on stream velocity (as shown on the Hjulstrom diagram above). The faster the current, the heavier the particle that can be transported.
These ions are usually carried in the water all the way to the ocean. Sediments carried as solids as the stream flows are called a suspended load. The size of particles that can be carried within a load is determined by the streams velocity. Faster streams can carry larger particles.
As the flow velocity increases, only larger and larger particles will be deposited. Particles between these two curves (either moving too slow or being too small to be eroded or deposited) will be transported in the stream.
The faster the water is flowing, the larger the particles that can be kept in suspension and transported within the flowing water.

As the particle size gets larger, the minimum flow velocity needed to erode the particle decreases, with the lowest flow velocity being 30 centimetres per second to erode a 0.5 millimetre particle. To erode particles larger than 0.5 millimetres, the minimum flow velocity rises again.
On the other hand, a 0.01 mm silt particle only needs a velocity of 0.1 cm/s to remain in suspension, but requires 60 cm/s to be eroded. In other words, a tiny silt grain requires a greater velocity to be eroded than a grain of sand that is 100 times larger! For clay-sized particles, the discrepancy is even greater.
