A stream's bed load refers to the sediment and particles that are carried along the bottom of the stream by the flowing water. This bed load can include materials of various sizes, from sands and gravels to larger rocks and boulders. The movement of bed load within a stream can influence erosion, sediment transport, and the overall morphology of the stream channel.
