-Summing the density over all cells through a given dimension, both the gas and sink components. 
+These column density maps are made by summing the density over all cells through a given dimension, using both the gas and sink components. You can use the above 3D plot for orientation. In the 'down the barrel case', the vertical dimension is z, and the horizontal axis is y. The axes are given in the other plots.
