The river receives water from various tributaries, including the Wisconsin, Chippewa, and Black Rivers. The river flow is influenced by seasonal trends, with high flow in the spring due to snowmelt and precipitation, and low flow in the summer and fall. There are several dams on the Mississippi River that affect flow, including Lock and Dam No. 9 and No. 10. A quirky fact is that the Mississippi River is the third-largest watershed in the world, with a drainage basin that covers 1.2 million square miles.
