H1 has measured the diffractive DIS cross section ep → eXY using data from both of the HERA data-taking periods. Using new measurements of the diffractive cross section at different centre-of-mass energies, the diffractive longitudinal structure function FLD has been extracted. The results are in agreement with NLO QCD predictions based on fits to inclusive data. New high statistics measurements of the diffractive reduced cross section σrD have been made using two experimental methods covering the accessible kinematic range. This precise dataset agrees well with QCD-based predictions.
