Abstract
Fabry-Perot interferometric observations of the corona were carried out. The 6374 A line shows radial velocities between 10 and 70 km sec-1, both positive and negative. Most profiles of the 6374 A line are not Gaussian. The widths of the lines indicate unacceptably high temperatures, and thus suggest turbulent velocities, which appear to be of the same order as the line displacement velocities. Arguments are put forward that the corona consists mainly of individual non-turbulent knots with relative velocities similar to the measured ones.
