The primary flow providers for this gauge are snowmelt and monsoonal rains. There are several tributaries that contribute to the flow, including the Rio Chama and Rio Pueblo de Taos. The river is also affected by several dams, including the El Vado Dam and the Abiquiu Dam. The seasonal trends show that the flow is highest during the spring and early summer months, and lowest during the fall and winter. Interestingly, the river was once home to a unique species of fish called the Rio Grande Cutthroat Trout, which is now considered endangered.
