Left: the mass flux of different slices of the galaxy at different z-positions above and below the disk. Four different snapshots of time are shown. Right: the same, but only for Hα-emitting gas between 3 × 103 K and 5 × 104 K. Regions of the plot corresponding to inflow and outflow are displayed in the right panel.
