Dynamical fluctuations of the globally conserved quantities in heavy ion collision such as baryon number, strangeness, charge, and isospin are suggested to carry information about the deconfinement and chiral phase transitions. The STAR experiment has performed a comprehensive study of the collision energy and charge dependence of dynamical particle ratio ($K/\pi$, $p/\pi$, and $K/p$) fluctuations, net-charge fluctuations, and transverse momentum correlations at mid-rapidity, as well as neutral-charge pion fluctuations at forward rapidity. The centrality, charge, and collision energy dependence from new measurements of the fluctuation observables $\nu_{dyn}$ and $r_{m,1}$ and the energy dependence of transverse momentum correlations from $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 7.7-200 GeV Au+Au collisions are presented. These results are also compared to predictions from hadronic models.
