Abstract: | Emission gradient curves for extreme ultraviolet (EUV) resonance lines of O vi and Mg x have been constructed from spectroheliograms of quiet limb regions observed with the Harvard experiment on Skylab. An analysis of these data suggests that the coronal temperature rises throughout the height range 1.03R
r1.3R
. This result implies that in quiet regions there is significant coronal heating beyond r = 1.3R
