Abstract. We report on the 323 hours of nearly uninterrupted time series photometric observations of the DBV star GD358 acquired with the Whole Earth Telescope (WET) during May 23 to June 8, 2000. We acquired more than 232000 independent measurements and detected the non-radial g-modes consistent with degree l=1 and radial order 8 to 20 and their linear combinations up to 6th order. We also detect, for the first time, a high amplitude l=2 mode, with a period of 796s. In the 2000 WET data, the largest amplitude modes are similar to those detected with the WET observations of 1990 and 1994, but the highest combination order previously detected was 4th order.
