Abstract
The projection of the net balance of emissions of the Cuban forest sector in 2030 has been evaluated by means of two forms: Considering the historical tendency of the balances among 1990-2014 and, valuing the resultant between emissions and removals, calculating the last in two ways (starting from the historical tendency of the change of covered surface for forests and, starting from the tendency of the increase of biomass). So much the historical tendency of the balances like the evaluation based on covered surface presented constant results starting from 20252030, while the employment of the increase of biomass demonstrated that although in 2030 the forest surface of the country is covered, the removals of atmospheric carbon will continue increasing for the increment of the forest biomass.
