Abstract
This review concentrates on the quiet-Sun chromosphere.
Its internetwork areas are dynamically dominated by the
so-called chromospheric three-minute oscillation. They
are interpretationally dominated by the so-called Ca II
K 2V and H 2V grains. The main points of this review are
that the one phenomenon explains the other (both ways),
that the quiet-Sun chromosphere is a clapotisphere per-
vaded by shocks above h = 1 Mm, and that the existence
of the classical temperature minimum is in doubt.
