Standing Committees are permanent committees established under the standing rules of the Senate and specialize in the consideration of particular subject areas. ... Special or Select Committees were originally established by the Senate for a limited time period to perform a particular study or investigation.

Answer:

standing committees review and modify bills and decide if they should be reported to the floor for a vote. Subcommittees then do much of the work of reviewing a bill. Joint committees coordinate the efforts of both houses on key issues, while select committees conduct special investigations.
