The river's flow is provided by precipitation, groundwater, and surface runoff, and it is influenced by several tributaries and dams, including the South Branch River Raisin, Raisinville Creek, and the Dundee Dam. Seasonally, the river experiences higher flows in the spring due to snowmelt and spring rains, while flows decrease in the summer and fall. Interesting facts about the hydrology of the River Raisin include its historical significance in the War of 1812 and its designation as a National Water Trail.
