The primary contributors to the flow of the Pearl River are rainfall and snowmelt, with occasional fluctuations due to dam releases from the Ross Barnett Reservoir. The river is also fed by several tributaries, including the Strong River, Yockanookany River, and Bogue Chitto River. Seasonally, the river experiences the highest flow during the spring, with occasional flooding in the surrounding areas. Interestingly, the Pearl River is home to several species of freshwater mussels, some of which are endangered.
