Broad HCO+ absorption traces diffuse CO-dark H2 with f_mol=0.09, f_CNM=0.38, and CO abundance ≲10^{-5} relative to H2, undetected in CO emission or absorption below few×10^{19} cm^{-2}.
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.
