Table 1.

The kinematics input to the DBM and the resulting predicted arrival times and speeds (and errors therein) of Feature 2 at L1, corresponding to the extreme range of drag parameter. In the bottom panel, best-fit parameters, predicted arrival times and speeds (and errors therein) estimated from time-elongation track fitting methods are given. The STEREO-A and B shown in parentheses for each method denotes the spacecraft from which data is used. Negative (positive) errors in predicted arrival time correspond to a predicted arrival time that is before (after) the actual CME arrival time determined from in-situ measurements. Negative (positive) errors in predicted speed correspond to a predicted speed that is less that (more than) than actual CME speed at L1.
