The effects acceleration and transport on the charge and elemental composition of anomalous cosmic rays is discussed in the context of the model of acceleration at the solar-wind termination shock. Since the transport coefficients depend on the mass and charge of the particles, changes of composition are expected, both in the acceleration and the transport process. These effects are shown for different species. Special attention will be given to the production of multiply-charged ionic species from the originally singly-charged species, as a result of the acceleration at the termination shock and subsequent propagation. Good agreement is found with these observations, suggesting that the models are capturing much of the basic physics. In particular, the energy where the singly-charged anomalous cosmic rays give way to multiply-charged particles is very sharp and at very nearly the same energy for all species observed, and also in the model. .
