Reply to the comment on "Avalanches and Non-Gaussian Fluctuations of the Global Velocity of Imbibition Fronts"

In [R. Planet, S. Santucci and J. Ortin, Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 094502 (2009)], we reported that both the size and duration of the global avalanches observed during a forced imbibition process follow power law distributions with cut-offs. Following a comment by G. Pruessner, we discuss here the right procedure to perfom, in order to extract reliable exponents characterising those pdf's.
