Cloud segmentation for three clouds in our sample: MW-C7_2 (left), MW-C1 (center) and MW-C10 (right). The blue-green color maps show the masked ¹²CO(2→1) integrated intensity maps. The dashed black contours denote the projected boundaries of each clump. The red crosses and ellipses show the emission centroid and an elliptical approximation of the emission in each clump. These ellipses represent a rough estimate of the size and orientation of the molecular clumps obtained through beam deconvolution. Clumps that could not be deconvolved are indicated as a filled dot. These clumps are not included in the analysis.
