Analysis of 3161 molecular clouds reveals oblate shapes aligned with the galactic plane, a flatter velocity dispersion-size relation than Larson's law, strong mass-size correlation, and that 12CO traces diffuse turbulent gas while C18O traces gravity-dominated regions.
Multi-transition CO observations reveal that the star formation-molecular gas relation becomes more linear for denser gas tracers, implying a volume density power-law index of approximately 1.5.
Advocates for SKA frequency coverage beyond 15 GHz to observe redshifted low-J CO, HCN and similar lines for cold molecular gas studies in high-redshift galaxies.
The chapter proposes SKA spectroscopic surveys of the inner and outer Milky Way using OH, CH, radio recombination lines, and H2CO to study molecular cloud formation, ionized gas properties, and CO-dark molecular gas.
