The potential contribution of the aufeis flow to the formation of the water balance of rivers during various phases of hydrological regime was calculated.

For individual rivers, the aufeis flow can reach 5–28 mm per year, which makes up 2.6 to 20.8% (an average is 8.1%) of river runoff. On average, water resources stored in aufeis make up 235% of the winter river flow (135% for the Indigirka River basin). The contribution of the aufeis flow during the spring flood can reach 39% and is 13.7% in the outlet of the Indigirka River basin.
