English to Chinese Science Forestry / Wood / Timber
上下文讲的是森林:

Forests are classed by age only for management purposes. They can be undisturbed but few if any remain and, in North America, only the extreme northern boreal forests qualify as pristine; young or immature stands are called ‘second growth’ 【following】 disturbance even when old and mature; and truly old growth forests have long recovered from disturbance and are characterized by a mixture of healthy and diseased, decrepit or moribund stems

年轻的、未成熟的森林叫做“次生林”,接下来 following disturbance ... 好像是说老的和成熟的森林如果受过干扰,也叫次生林,可对?

young or immature stands are called ‘second growth’ 【following】 disturbance even when old and mature;

——————————这句想表达应该是,在受到干扰后,young or immature被称为次生林。即使在它们已经old and mature时,仍将其视为次生林。

我感觉原文想表达的是:从来没受过干扰的,是原生林。只要受过干扰,就是次生林。哪怕受过干扰的时间已经比较久远,是在林木young or immature时,即使这些林木已经到了old and mature(干扰的影响相对而言已经不太大),仍然应视为次生林。
