Collimated ejections of plasma called “ coronal hole jets ” are commonly observed in polar coronal holes .
However , such coronal jets are not only a specific features of polar coronal holes but they can also be found in coronal holes appearing at lower heliographic latitudes .
In this paper we present some observations of “ equatorial coronal hole jets ” made up with data provided by the STEREO/SECCHI instruments during a period comprising March 2007 and December 2007 .
The jet events are selected by requiring at least some visibility in both COR1 and EUVI instruments .
We report 15 jet events , and we discuss their main features .
For one event , the uplift velocity has been determined as about 200 km s ^ { -1 } , while the deceleration rate appears to be about 0.11 km s ^ { -2 } , less than solar gravity .
The average jet visibility time is about 30 minutes , consistent with jet observed in polar regions .
On the basis of the present dataset , we provisionally conclude that there are not substantial physical differences between polar and equatorial coronal hole jets .
