We investigate red-giant candidates which are observed during the initial run (60 days) and the first long run in the anti-centre direction (150 days) of CoRoT. We combine these data sets to compute Fourier spectra with higher frequency resolution compared to data from single runs. This increased frequency resolution will allow us to resolve solar-like oscillation modes with longer lifetimes (> 50 days).
We show results of the analysis of the Fourier spectra and an interpretation of the frequency patterns and mode life times with respect to their position in a colour-magnitude diagram. These results are then compared with theoretical predictions.
