'Suspension' or as you cited in your question 'suspended load'. Fine materials can be suspended in the water and are carried away in such a method. These particles are too light to sink to the bottom of the fast moving river. Suspension load forms the largest part of the river load. Materials that can be suspended include silt, mud and clay.
