Notes. In the second-last column, we list height differences computed from the values of h ¯ crit ( n crit = 0.8 ) $ {\langle\overline{h}_{\mathrm{crit}} \rangle}^{(n_{\mathrm{crit}}=0.8)} $ and h ¯ center $ \overline{h}_{\mathrm{center}} $. Time averages were computed from all data points within a five-hour time window prior to the nominal flare start time. The first five flares in the list were eruptive flares.
