The flow is primarily supplied by snowmelt from the Columbia Basin and its tributaries, including the Snake River. The seasonal trend shows peak flows in late spring due to snowmelt, while low flows occur in the winter. The river is regulated by several dams, including Priest Rapids Dam and Wanapum Dam. One interesting fact is that the Columbia River is the largest river in the Pacific Northwest and is home to several species of fish, including salmon and steelhead.
