Note to reference poster
Asker: Thanks Taña. I think "forest cluster" is fine, for I believe it involves more than just the trees. I found this after your suggestion: https://www.metsateollisuus.fi/mediabank/439.pdf and I'm quite sure it is what the source text talks about. Anyway, I'll check with the client.
