Several current chromospheric models are reviewed and shown to be inadequate in their description of the dynamical effects of the chromosphere. The lack of a suitable model is due to an insufficient understanding of the physical processes responsible for the formation of the chromosphere. These include hydrodynamic motions such as granulation and supergranulation, oscillations, and unresolved motions, which are probably contributed by short-period acoustic waves. These short-period waves can create a chromospheric temperature rise, and may also affect other dynamics. Gouttebroze and Leibacher (1980) proposed a good nonlinear dynamical calculation model; it did not, however, account for the coupling between the long-period waves and the short-period waves that heat the chromosphere. Finally, problems in measuring the supergranulation in the chromosphere are described, and the need for high resolution chromospheric observations over extended periods of time is discussed.
