Emitting heights measured in Law et al. (2021b) compared to the layers in the disk where the optical depth ranges from 0.67 to 2 for each line. This layer serves as a probe of the emitting height as most of the contribution of the line should come from these heights. The comparison seems to coincide well with the surfaces of CO and 13CO. Models A and B are within the range given by the observations.
