In this paper a summary of results from coordinated observations of streamers acquired by the SOHO Coronal Diagnostic Spectrometer (CDS) and Ultra Violet Coronograph Spectrometer (UVCS) experiments is presented (Parenti et al. 2000). Data from different altitudes within the solar corona were taken, with the purpose of determining their physical parameters – densities, electron temperatures and element abundances – and their changes over the altitude range between 1.02 and 1.6 R⊙. Further UVCS streamer data, taken about two months later are used to compare with the behaviour seen in two different streamers. The streamers resulted to have a different behaviour in temperature and density. The low corona, covered by CDS data, shows little evidence of abundance variation with respect to photospheric values, while, at UVCS altitudes, a depletion of all element abundances is clearly evident.
