The river's main constituents are water from snowmelt, precipitation, and groundwater. The stream gauge does not measure specific tributaries or dams, but there are several major tributaries that contribute to the flow of the Missouri River, including the Yellowstone, Platte, and Kansas Rivers. Seasonal trends show that the river's flow is highest in the spring due to snowmelt and lower in the summer and fall. Interestingly, the Missouri River is the longest river in North America and has played a significant role in the history and development of the United States.
