Table-specific (left) and cross-table (right) loadings for different species. Each row is a loading dimension, columns are features (species in this case), and intervals summarize posterior samples for the associated loading parameter, $W_{\mathit{jk}}^X$ for table-specific loadings, and $B_{\mathit{jk}}^X$ for cross-table loadings. Species are sorted from most to least abundant, within each taxonomic family. Caution must be exercised when interpreting these loadings, as loadings are invariant under rotations and reflections.
