There are several tributaries that feed into the Rio Grande, including the Conejos River and the Alamosa River. The Rio Grande is also affected by several dams, including the Elephant Butte Dam in New Mexico. The hydrology of the Rio Grande is important for the agricultural industry in the region, as it provides water for irrigation. Interestingly, the Rio Grande is also a popular destination for fly fishing enthusiasts.
