Observations of circumstellar disks with Nobeyama Millimeter Array (NMA) are presented for the following two topics. The first one is on the continued NMA survey for 13 complete samples of protostar candidates associated with Taurus molecular cloud. The observation confirmed the previous result that protostar candidates do not have detectable 3 mm continuum emission except for the two sources L1551-IRS5 and IRAS 04365+2535. This sets the upper limit to the circumstellar disk mass to be ~0.03 Mʘ for the protostar candidates. The disk mass for protostar candidates tends to be smaller than that around young T Tauri stars, suggesting that it may increase in the course of evolution from protostars into T Tauri stars. The second topic is on the detection of CO (J=1-0) emission toward GG Tau. The observations with the 45-m telescope and with NMA show strong evidence of the CO emission arising from a rotating disk with its size significantly extended with respect to the dust disk. Depletion of CO gas in the GG Tau disk is discussed.
