The La Plata River's flow is mainly fed by snowmelt and monsoon rainfall. Seasonal trends show that flow rates are highest in the spring and lowest in the fall. There are no major dams on the La Plata River, but a few minor ones exist. Interesting facts about the hydrology of the La Plata River include the presence of "tufa dams," which are formed from the accumulation of calcium carbonate in the riverbed, and the occasional occurrence of flash floods during monsoon season.
