A river may run dry before reaching the end of its course if it runs out of water, or only flow during certain seasons.

Water first enters rivers through precipitation, whether from rainfall, the runoff of water down a slope, the melting of glaciers or snow, or seepage from aquifers beneath the surface of the Earth.
