The river is fed by several small tributaries and has a watershed area of 1,110 square miles. The hydrology of the river is influenced by seasonal patterns, with higher flows occurring during the winter and spring months due to increased precipitation and snowmelt. There are no major dams on the Pamunkey River, but there are several smaller dams and impoundments that may affect the flow. Interestingly, the Pamunkey River was once home to the Pamunkey Indian Tribe and was a major source of food and transportation for the tribe.
