Upper panel: JCMT observing positions of NGC 1068 overlaid on a Herschel/PACS 70 μm grayscale map. The black contours indicate the 70 μm continuum, starting from 100σ and increasing in steps of 3σ, where 1σ = 3 × 10⁻⁴ Jy/pixel. The white cross denotes the position of the central AGN in the galaxy. Orange circles indicate the positions observed in jiggle mapping mode. The red square shows the area (1.5′ × 1.5′) studied in this work. Bottom panel: Zoomed-in view of the central region obtained from the ALMA high-resolution CO (1–0) map (project ID: 2018.1.01684.S, Saito et al. 2022b; see also Nakajima et al. 2023). Black contours represent CO (1–0) integrated intensity levels, ranging from 4σ to 20σ in steps of 4σ, where 1σ = 0.25 Jy beam⁻¹ km s⁻¹. The dotted-dashed red circle represents the JCMT beam size of 14″ (approximately 1.1 kpc).
