Caption: Figure 4.

Left panel: composite image of [C II]﹩\lambda 158\,\mu {\rm{m}}﹩ intensity (red, normalized to 3.8 × 10−7 W m−2 sr−1), [O I]﹩\lambda 145\,\mu {\rm{m}}﹩ (green, 6.4 × 10−8 W m−2 sr−1), and [O I]﹩\lambda 63\,\mu {\rm{m}}﹩ (blue, 9.4 × 10−11 W m−2 sr−1). Middle and right panels: respective images of derived log(nH) (m−3) and log(G/G0) (G0 in Habing 1968 units, 1.6 × 10−6 W m−2), computed by localizing FIFI-LS line intensities/ratios on the PDRT parameters. Contours in all of the panels are the same as in Figure 1.
