Abstract
We establish an algebraic contraction rate in a modified Wasserstein distance for solutions of scalar conservation laws with uniformly convex flux. We also show that our estimate is optimal w.r.t. scaling in time and discuss why it gives non-trivial information in relation to the stability of the rarefaction wave.
