A falling tree
The original climax community in an ecosystem is more likely to be restored after a natural disturbance, as it allows for the ecosystem to recover and return to its pre-disturbance state through natural processes. Human-caused disturbances often result in more significant and long-lasting impacts that may prevent the restoration of the original climax community.
A disturbance that harms some organisms but does not significantly impact the overall ecosystem is known as a "sublethal disturbance." This type of disturbance may affect individual species or populations without causing long-term ecological changes or degradation to the habitat as a whole. Examples include localized pollution events or specific predation pressures that impact certain species but allow the ecosystem to maintain its structure and function.
Catastrophic disturbance refers to a sudden and severe event that causes significant disruption or damage to an ecosystem, resulting in long-lasting consequences for the plant and animal populations within that ecosystem. Examples include hurricanes, wildfires, volcanic eruptions, and tsunamis.

Secondary succession, where plant and animal life recolonize an area after a disturbance has disrupted an existing ecosystem.

Small disturbance
secondary disturbance
Decomposition is not a disturbance of the ecosystem. This is because it is a natural process in harmony with the ecosystem rather than an outside force is interfering.
A primary ecological disturbance will be the one which will directly affect the ecosystem. For example flood, volcanic eruption, earthquake. A secondary ecological disturbance will be the one which will indirectly affect the ecosystem.

I think that the increasing and decreasing of the other populations was a major disturbance that the ecosystem was able to recover compelety
A small scale disturbance in a community would be kids squealing their tires at night. These are things that are more annoying than destructive.
An example of a disturbance could be a natural event like a hurricane or earthquake that disrupts the normal functioning of an ecosystem by causing damage to the environment and affecting the organisms living there.
