Table 4.

Average differences between the predicted and observed ICME arrival times (see Table 3): col. 1 contains the proxy used to infer the CME propagation speed. Cols. 2 and 3: the mean error and the mean absolute error (negative when the predicted arrival precedes the observed ICME arrival) and their standard deviations, respectively. Cols. 4 and 5: the mean error and the mean absolute error and their standard deviations with respect to the sheath arrival.
