High time resolution (≍13 sec cadence) Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) Coronal Diagnostic Spectrometer (CDS) Grazing Incidence Spectrometer (GIS) time series data is analysed for evidence of quasi-periodic variability in the solar corona. The observations are obtained from a GIS study of a coronal hole boundary region taken in October 1997. A wavelet anaylsis is applied to EUV emission lines covering a temperature range of log Te = 5.3 - 6.1K. Wavelet analysis allows the frequency and temporal information of any periods present within the data to be analysed. Statistically significant periods are found within the range 100 - 900 seconds. Observations of short wavepackets with periods of the order 50 - 100 seconds with durations of 2 - 5 oscillations are reported.
