Abstract
After a review on the state of tokamak transport theory, the methodolo gy to derive experimental results will be described. Examples of confi nement in ohmic plasmas and the deterioration with additional heating will be given. Some examples of improved confinement modes will be dis cussed. Fluctuation measurements and correlation with characteristic d imensionless numbers should reveal the clue to the unexplained phenome na.
