The temperature dependence of the static penetration {Lambda}(T) has been used as a guide to the nature of the superconducting state in high-T{sub c} materials. It has been argued that an algebraic temperature dependence in the ratio {delta}{Lambda}(T)/{Lambda}(0) {triple_bond} [{Lambda}(T) - {Lambda}(0)]/{Lambda}(0) at low temperature is evidence for d-wave pairing. This paper examines the effect of superconducting phase fluctuations upon {Lambda}(T) and finds an algebraic dependence over a broad range of temperature.
