Uncertainties in the calculated probabilities were estimated with a Monte Carlo technique. Model parameters errors were assumed to be normally distributed, with estimated or assumed standard deviations as indicated. Each probability was calculated 1000 times, with values drawn at random from these distributions. the probability uncertainty (shown within parenthesis) is taken to be the 15.9% an 84.1% quantiles of the resulting suite of values, corresponding to 1 standard deviations. The assumed friction parameters are v=0.75; =23.3 7.7 yr; A =0.35 0.15; and =0.4-0.3.
