摘要：
This is a study of the global fluctuations in power injection and light transmission through a liquid crystal just above the onset of electroconvection. The source of the fluctuations is identified as the creation and annihilation of defects. They are spatially uncorrelated and yet temporally correlated. The temporal correlation is seen to persist for extremely long times. There seems to be an especially close relation between defect creation or annihilation in electroconvection and thermal plumes in Rayleigh-Benard convection.
