Fluctuation dynamics in magnetization plateaus is a relatively poorly explored area in frustrated magnetism. Here we use muon spin relaxation to determine the fluctuation timescale and associated field distribution width in the partial magnetization plateau of Ca{sub 3}Co{sub 2}O{sub 6}. The muon spin relaxation rate has a simple and characteristic field dependence which we model and, by fitting to the data at 15 K, we extract a fluctuation timescale {tau} 880(30) ps and a field distribution width {Delta} = 40.6(3) mT. Comparison with previous results on Ca{sub 3}Co{sub 2}O{sub 6} suggests that this fluctuation timescale can be associated with short-range, slowly fluctuating magnetic order.
