Comments to the paper of L.Kh. Ingel’ and A.A. Makosko “Disturbances induced by gravity field inhomogeneities in the barotropic ocean”

Analyzed are the attempts of the authors of the reviewed paper to prove that the effects created by minor inhomogeneities of the gravity field are significant for geophysical flows. These attempts can hardly be considered successful. The reasons for the failure are described.
