L’abondance en bouquet de basse futaie inéquienne feuillue semble être le meilleur indicateur de la classe d’âge du peuplement. Une plus forte abondance des bouquets de haute futaie inéquienne feuillue et de futaie feuillue de vétérans est révélatrice d’un âge de peuplement plus avancé.
I'm coming up with "uneven-aged low forest hardwood" - and I'm not sure if it's right.
Thanks for the help!

: futtaie = high forest (which doesn't mean tall); this is a low irregular high forest of hardwoods, not a "clump". Feuillus often referred to as "hardwoods" in English (broad-leaved trees are hardwoods, les "résineux" are softwoods. Timber perspective!)

That nice of you. It's quite alright that futaie = high forest, but it also means stand or forest simply. on the other hand, broad-leaved trees = hardwoods, quite ok; my sugg of "clump" refers to "bouquet" in "bouquet de basse futaie...and not 2 feuillue
