在表格环境中配置子图

Question

我正在尝试在表格环境中配置子图（包括多行命令）的表格，但结果却在右侧的多行图上方出现了奇怪的空白。我已经使用适当的用户包开始和结束了文档。我在页面前后附加了附加的子图，并使用 \ContinuedFloat 命令。任何帮助都将不胜感激！请注意，这是针对地质大师项目的参考。

代码：

\begin{figure}[h!]

\caption{Annotated stratigraphy at site RKBS9.}
\label{fig:RKBS9_site}

\begin{subfigure}{\textwidth}
\centering
\includegraphics[width= \linewidth]{Figures/Study_Site/Outcrops/RKBS9_slope_sq.pdf}
\caption{Overview of site 9, indicating positions of detailed pictures.}
\label{fig:RKBS9_slope}
\end{subfigure}
\end{figure}%
\begin{figure}[ht]\ContinuedFloat

欢迎来到 TeX.SE！

借助包valign中的宏adjustbox（也可以加载graphicx），您可以将表格中的第一个图像和“多行”单元格中的图像移动到其顶部：

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[vmargin=20mm]{geometry}
\usepackage{multirow}
\usepackage{subcaption}
\usepackage[demo,  % in real document remove this option!
            export]{adjustbox}

\caption{Overview of site 9, indicating positions of detailed pictures.}
