Temporal Scaling of Interfaces Propagating in Porous Media
  To better understand the temporal behavior of a roughening meniscus driven by capillary forces during the imbibition of a viscous fluid in porous media, we measure the height-height autocorrelation function $C(t)$ using a constant driving force. We find $C(t)\sim t^{\beta}$, with $\beta = 0.56\pm 0.03$, and provide the first experimental evidence for driving force independent temporal scaling behavior of a propagating wetting front in the presence of quenched noise. We interpret the value of ${\beta}$ in terms of the possibility that the dynamics may be governed by nonvanishing non-linearity due to anisotropic depinning.
