This paper reviews the estimates to date of the vertical 'effective diffusion coefficient' for stratospheric small scale turbulence transport, KB. These estimates range (in order of magnitude) from 1.0 sq. meter/s to 0.01 sq. meter/s, that is to say from a value which would make turbulence a dominant factor in stratospheric transport to a value which would make it totally insignificant. Such a large range implies much ignorance in this subject. The various techniques are closely examined and the unanswered experimental questions are exhibited. The conclusion is reached that more experimental work needs to be done before one has a reliable estimate for KB.
