For a better understanding of the physical mechanisms underlying anomalous plasma transport it is necessary to diagnose the fluctuations in various plasma parameters along with their cross-correlations. After a brief introduction into the mathematical tools for fluctuation analysis, an overview will be given of the most important techniques for diagnosing various fluctuating quantities.
