In this work, we examine by eyes to make sure that the spectral profiles of target regions are consistent with single velocity component fits. See §\ref{988456} more details about the target identification and selection.
Herschel Column Density Map
The Herschel column density maps are derived from Herschel IRAC 160 and SPIRE 250/350/500 µm observations of dust emission as part of the Herschel Gould Belt Survey (HGBS).
Sources from \citet{Goodman1993}
\citet{Goodman1993} presented a survey of 43 sources with observations of NH3 line emission (see the
SIMBAD obejct list; notice that several objects are associated with different SIMBAD identifiers than in the paper; see Table 1 and Table 2 in
\citealp{Goodman1993}). We update the values presented by
\citet{Goodman1993} with the modern measurement of the distances to each NH3 clump (see Paper I for details). The update in distance affects the following measurements presented by Goodman et al. (1993):
1. Mass (\(M\)): Since the mass was calculated from the number density derived by modeling the radiative transfer of NH$_3$ line emission, the mass estimates scale with the distance to the cubic order, \(M \propto D^3\).
