The river is fed by various tributaries including the Cheat River and the Youghiogheny River. There are several dams along the river, including the Morgantown Lock and Dam and the Opekiska Lock and Dam. The river experiences seasonal changes in flow, with higher flows typically occurring in the spring due to snowmelt and rainfall. Interestingly, the Monongahela River was once home to a thriving freshwater mussel population, but pollution and habitat destruction have caused a decline in recent years.
