The river is mainly fed by rainfall and snowmelt, with some tributaries such as the Prairie Dog Town Fork and the Wichita River also contributing. The river is regulated by several dams, including Denison Dam and Lake Texoma. Seasonally, the flow of the river can vary greatly depending on precipitation and water releases from the dams. One interesting fact about the Red River is that it gets its name from the reddish-brown color of the water, which is caused by the high amount of sediment and clay particles that are carried in the water.
