Marys River at Great Mills, MD streamgauge measures the water flow of the St. Marys River, which is primarily fed by groundwater sources and precipitation. The river runs through several tributaries, including the lower Patuxent River and the Potomac River. The flow of the river tends to be highest during the winter and spring months due to increased precipitation and snowmelt. The river is also influenced by the nearby Great Mills Dam, which was constructed in the early 1900s to provide flood control and power generation. Interestingly, the St. Marys River is known for its high quality water, which supports a variety of aquatic life, including blue crabs and striped bass.
