Field spectra are analyzed to yield the time-resolved statistics of pulsed transmission through quasi-one-dimensional dielectric media with static disorder. The normalized intensity correlation function with displacement and polarization rotation for an incident pulse of linewidth sigma at delay time t is a function only of the field correlation function, which is identical to that found for steady-state excitation, and of kappa(sigma)(t), the residual degree of intensity correlation at points at which the field correlation function vanishes. The dynamic probability distribution of normalized intensity depends only upon kappa(sigma)(t). Steady-state statistics are recovered in the limit sigma-->0, in which kappa(sigma=0) is the steady-state degree of correlation.
