We have completed a kinematical analysis of 184 selected Planck Galactic Cold Clumps (PGCC) (Planck Collaboration, 2015) in order to understand better the stability of molecular clouds and the induced star formations. Most of our clumps are in the second quadrant of the Galaxy. For the investigation we used 12CO, 13CO, C18O line observations which covered the 184 PGCC fully or partially. The majority of the data were observed with the Osaka 1.85 m telescope in Japan (Nishimura et al. 2015) and we also have some observations with the KOSMA 3 m telescope, from Switzerland (Kramer et al. 2000) and with the IRAM 30 m telescope, Spain (www.iram-institute.org).
