An overview of monographs and other reference publications on the country’s water resources assessment, with an emphasis on water resources estimates defined for the Baltic Sea basin. The changes in water resources and hydrological regime of the rivers occurring since the end of the 70s—the beginning of the 80s of the last century on the territory of Russia under the influence of climate change are described. Predictive estimates of possible changes in river streamflow made at the State Hydrological Institute are presented.
