Tables and figures

Text, table and figures should be able to 'stand alone', i.e. a table or figure should be informative in itself, even if removed from the article, and vice versa. Tables/figures should be referred to in the text as "Table 1" or "Figure 2" rather than "Table above" or "Figure below". Indicate in the manuscript, where the table or figure should be placed: (Figure 1 about here) - (Table 2 not earlier than here). Tables and figures are placed last in the manuscript, after endnotes and references.
