Assuming a normal distribution of each data point around the true value, we can get the probability P for the growth rate as P(γ,h0)= i=1N{exp [-12(yi-y(ti,γ,h0)σi)2]}, where N is the number of the data, yi the data of the areal-density perturbation, y(ti,γ,h0) the fitted function with the growth rate γ and the initial areal-density perturbation h0 as a fitting parameter, and σi the error of each datum. The standard deviation of P as a function of γ gives the error σγ, where we allow all potential h0.

Applying the error propagation formula on β of Eq. 1 gives (σβ/β)2=(σρa/ρa)2+(γcl/ 2βkva)2[kσL/(1+kL)]2+(γ/βkva)2(σγ/γ) 2+(γcl/2βkva)2(σg/g)2+(σm/ṁ)2, where σ is the standard deviation of each subscript quantity, γcl kg/(1+kL) is the classical growth rate, and va ṁ/ρa the ablation velocity. The small uncertainty of k is ignored.
