The river is fed by several tributaries, including the Pembina River and the Wild Rice River. The river is also affected by the presence of several dams, including the Lockport Dam in Manitoba, Canada. Seasonal trends show that the river experiences its highest flows in the spring and summer due to snow melt and increased rainfall. Interestingly, the Red River is known for its tendency to flood, which has resulted in the construction of several flood control measures in the region.
