The entries in this triangle (in its many forms) are often called ballot numbers.
T(n,k) = number of standard tableaux of shape (n,k) (n > 0, 0 <= k <= n). Example: T(3,1) = 3 because we have 134/2, 124/3 and 123/4. - Emeric Deutsch, May 18 2004
T(n,k) is the number of full binary trees with n+1 internal nodes and jump-length k. In the preorder traversal of a full binary tree, any transition from a node at a deeper level to a node on a strictly higher level is called a jump; the positive difference of the levels is called the jump distance; the sum of the jump distances in a given ordered tree is called the jump-length. - Emeric Deutsch, Jan 18 2007
The k-th diagonal from the right (k=1, 2, ...) gives the sequence obtained by asking in how many ways can we toss a fair coin until we first get k more heads than tails. The k-th diagonal has formula k(2m+k-1)!/(m!(m+k)!) and g.f. (C(x))^k where C(x) is the generating function for the Catalan numbers, (1-sqrt(1-4*x))/(2*x). - Anthony C Robin, Jul 12 2007
T(n,k) is also the number of order-decreasing and order-preserving full transformations (of an n-element chain) of waist k (waist (alpha) = max(Im(alpha))). - Abdullahi Umar, Aug 25 2008
Formatted as an upper right triangle (see tables) a(c,r) is the number of different triangulated planar polygons with c+2 vertices, with triangle degree c-r+1 for the same vertex X (c=column number, r=row number, with c >= r >= 1). - Patrick Labarque, Jul 28 2010
The triangle sums, see A180662 for their definitions, link Catalan's triangle, its mirror is A033184, with several sequences, see crossrefs. - Johannes W. Meijer, Sep 22 2010
The m-th row of Catalan's triangle consists of the unique nonnegative differences of the form binomial(m+k,m)-binomial(m+k,m+1) with 0 <= k <= m (See Links). - R. J. Cano, Jul 22 2014
T(n,k) is also the number of nondecreasing parking functions of length n+1 whose maximum element is k+1. For example T(3,2) = 5 because we have (1,1,1,3), (1,1,2,3), (1,2,2,3), (1,1,3,3), (1,2,3,3). - Ran Pan, Nov 16 2015
T(n,k) is the number of Dyck paths from (0,0) to (n+2,n+2) which start with n-k+2 east steps and touch the diagonal y=x only on the last north step. - Felipe Rueda, Sep 18 2019
T(n-1,k) for k < n is number of well-formed strings of n parenthesis pairs with prefix of exactly n-k opening parenthesis; T(n,n) = T(n,n-1). - Hermann Stamm-Wilbrandt, May 02 2021

Sometimes called a Catalan triangle, although there are many other triangles that carry that name - see A009766, A008315, A028364, A033184, A053121, A059365, A062103.
Number of nodes of outdegree k in all ordered trees with n edges. Equivalently, number of ascents of length k in all Dyck paths of semilength n. Example: T(3,2) = 3 because the Dyck paths of semilength 3 are UDUDUD, UD(UU)DD, (UU)DDUD, (UU)DUDD and UUUDDD, where U = (1,1), D = (1,-1), the ascents of length 2 being shown between parentheses. - Emeric Deutsch, Nov 19 2006
Riordan array (f(x), x*g(x)) where f(x) is the g.f. of A088218 and g(x) is the g.f. of A000108. - Philippe Deléham, Jan 23 2010
T(n,k) is the number of nonnegative paths of upsteps U = (1,1) and downsteps D = (1,-1) of length 2*n with k returns to  ground level, the horizontal line through the initial vertex. Example: T(2,1) = 2 counts UDUU, UUDD. Also, T(n,k) = number of these paths whose last descent has length k, that is, k downsteps follow the last upstep. Example: T(2,1) = 2 counts UUUD, UDUD. - David Callan, Nov 21 2011
Belongs to the hitting-time subgroup of the Riordan group. Multiplying this triangle by the square Pascal matrix gives A092392 read as a square array. See the example below. - Peter Bala, Nov 03 2015
