Abstract
A review is given of the activities of the working group on small scal e features at the 2nd SOHO Workshop of Elba, 27 September - 1 October 1993. The small scale and filamentary structure of the solar transitio n region, and possibly also the corona, was pointed out. The reported observations furthermore demonstrated that the upper solar atmosphere is strongly dynamical, containing rapidly flowing gas and with feature s changing with time. Theoretical concepts and simulations of conditio ns in the transition region and corona were presented and discussed. F inally some ideas on future observations and modelling were put forwar d.
