Abstract: We have performed observations of eight classical and one weak T Tauri Star, using the GHRS instrument on board of HST. We observe the Si IV (1400 A), C IV (1550 A), and MG II (2800 A) resonance doublets, and numerous H2 lines. Here we discuss the observational characteristics of these lines.
