We examine the spatial and temporal behaviour of the quiet Sun transition region (TR) using high resolution SUMER observations in O VI 1032 Å. A detailed study of raster images allows us to differentiate the network and internetwork through Doppler shift and line width measurements. The oscillatory nature of the TR is investigated using wavelet analysis over a series of spectra obtained with high temporal cadence.
