Abstract: We present an explanatory-track visualization which utilizes multiple open-source graphics tools, including the C++ library OpenVDB and the 3D animation software Blender, to create a cinematic representation of simulation data generated in support of the Asian Summer Monsoon Chemical and Climate Impact Project (ACCLIP) campaign. After a brief summary of the project and data simulation, the process and techniques used to create the visualization are explained in detail.
