The main constituents of the flow are snowmelt from the Rocky Mountains and rainfall. The river has several tributaries, including the Pecos and Conchos rivers. The Amistad Dam and Reservoir is located upstream of the streamgauge and can impact the flow during certain seasons. The river flow is typically highest during the months of May and June due to snowmelt, and lowest during the winter months. Interesting facts about the river include its historical significance as a border between the US and Mexico, and the fact that it is one of the few rivers in the world that flows from a desert to a delta.
