abstract = "Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are among the main origins of
geomagnetic disturbances. They change the properties of the
near-earth interplanetary medium, enhancing some key parameters,
such as the southward interplanetary magnetic field and the solar
wind speed. Both quantities are known to be related to the energy
transfer from the solar wind to the Earths magnetosphere via the
magnetic reconnection process. Many attempts have been made to
predict the magnetic filed and the solar wind speed from
coronagraph observations. However, we still have much to learn
about the dynamic evolution of ICMEs as they propagate through the
interplanetary space. Increased observation capability is probably
needed. Among the several attempts to establish correlations
between CME and ICME properties, it was found that the average CME
propagation speed to 1AU is highly correlated to the ICME peak
speed (Dal Lago et al, 2004). In this work, we present an extended
study of such correlation, which confirms the results found in our
previous study. Some suggestions on how to use this kind of
results for space weather estimates are explored.",
