The primary objective of this proposal was to determine the relationship between the molecular gas and dust components of the interstellar medium of the Outer Galaxy. It made use of the High Resolution IRAS Galaxy Atlas and the FCRAO CO Survey of the Outer Galaxy. These HIRES images greatly augment the spatial dynamic range of the IRAS Survey data and the ability to discriminate multiple point sources within a compact region. Additionally, the HIRES far infrared images allow for more direct comparisons with molecular line data observed at 45 sec resolution. From funding of this proposal, we have completed two papers for publication in a refereed journal.
