Abstract: We summarize the results of an extensive 1.3mm continuum mapping study of the tex2html_wrap_inline617 Ophiuchi main cloud obtained with the IRAM 30m telescope equipped with the MPIfR 19-channel bolometer array. The mosaiced field covers about 1pc tex2html_wrap_inline779 with enough sensitivity to probe, for the first time, cloud cores, star-less clumps, and circumstellar envelopes/disks simultaneously. A comparison with the ISOCAM 6.75 tex2html_wrap_inline781 m and 15 tex2html_wrap_inline781 m images of tex2html_wrap_inline617 Oph obtained as part of the ISO central programme survey by Nordh, Olofsson et al.\ is presented. There is a good correspondence between the cores/clumps detected in emission at 1.3mm and the dark absorption structures seen in the ISOCAM images.
