The seasonal trend of the river is typically high during the spring months due to increased rainfall and snowmelt. The river is also affected by Meramec State Park and Meramec Caverns, which can impact the water quality. Interestingly, the Meramec River is home to several rare and threatened species, including the Ozark hellbender and the eastern massasauga rattlesnake.
