Experimental test in lowland tropical forest shows top-down effects through four trophic levels.
In the restricted syntax, top-level classes do not contain nested classes; all types are top-level class names; and methods are monomorphic.
For each point, the bottom line indicates when it is visible, the top line indicates when it is selected for feature extraction.
Although no visible zonation, the layer was sampled in several steps from bottom to top.
We will speak of the top, bottom, and two (vertical) sides of such a rectangle.
Thus, the refinement of abstract model into a detailed one is, in their interpretation, a feature of top-down design.
