Abstract

In the work the best model was selected for estimate of the main components of the biomass (bole, branches, needles, bark and roots) in stands of Pinus caribaea Morelet var. caribaea Barret and Golfari, under the conditions of the Integral Forest Enterprise Macurije, belonging to the municipalities Guane and Mantua of Pinar del Río. For it was used it the registration of the data from 30 plots settled down in the years 2012 and 2013 with made mensurations of diameter to 1,30 meters of the soil and total height, distributed in the different Basic Units of Forest Production (UBPF), Mantua, Los Ocujes, 20 de Mayo and Macurije. These plots were of 20 x 25 m following a simple random sampling. The following models were proven: lineal, logarithmic, inverse, quadratic, cubic, compound, power, simoidal, growth, exponential and logistical, according to the curvilinear estimate of the statistical package SPSS Version 15.0. They are presented in the work the equations and the adjusted parameters for each component of the biomass. As a result of the adjustment it concludes that the pattern simoidal was the most precise.
