Climatic model of the river runoff with 1/3 degree resolution is presented in the paper. The model is the linear reservoir model i.e., each cell in the model is the reservoir or the cascade of the reservoirs. Data of the ERA40 and MERRA reanalysis for the numerical modeling of the river runoff for the Lena River was used as well as the comparison with the observational data. The control data concerning the river discharge was taken from the results of the measurements on the hydrological station Lena – Kusur. The river discharge model vas also adapted to the delta zone with the 1.8 km resolution.
