The river flow is dependent on snowmelt and precipitation, with peak flows occurring in spring and summer. The Rio Nambe is a tributary of the Rio Grande and its flow contributes to the water supply for agriculture and communities downstream. The Nambe Falls Dam was built in the early 1900s to provide irrigation water to the surrounding farmland. Interesting facts about the hydrology of the Rio Nambe include the presence of several small tributaries that contribute to the main channel, and the potential for flash floods during monsoon season.
