The constituents of the flow include both natural runoff and controlled releases from nearby reservoirs, such as Pueblo Reservoir. Seasonally, the flow tends to be highest during the spring runoff period, with lower flows in late summer and fall. Interestingly, the gauge is located near the confluence of Fountain Creek and the Arkansas River, which historically has been a site of significant flooding. The gauge provides important information for flood forecasting and water management in the region.
