The principal constituents of the flow include precipitation, groundwater, and surface runoff. The creek is fed by several tributaries, including Swamp Creek and Skippack Creek, and is impounded by the Green Lane Reservoir Dam. Seasonal trends show that the flow is highest in the spring due to increased precipitation and snowmelt, while the flow is lowest in the summer and fall due to decreased precipitation and increased evaporation. Interestingly, the East Branch Perkiomen Creek is known for its excellent trout fishing, with several species thriving in the cool, clear water.
