Top: channel map of 13CO near the H ii region in the Caribbean Islands region. The cross in each panel marks the position of the H ii region, G085.051−0.182, reported by Lockman et al. (1996). The central velocity of each channel, in km s −1, is marked on the top left corner of each map. The blue arrow is the axis of the position–velocity map. Bottom: position–velocity map along the axis shown in the top panel. The grayscale background indicates 12CO, black contours indicate 13CO, and white contours indicate C 18O. The lowest contour is 5σ for 13CO and 10σ for C 18O, with the contour interval of 5σ. The cross indicates the rest velocity and the position of the H ii region.
