It is proposed the description of the possible correlation of the relative position of discrete bottom inhomogeneities. It is shown that the presence of such correlation results in a significant change in the average backscattering intensity. It is investigated under what conditions the effects arising in the presence of scatter of inhomogeneities in terms of size dominate, and under what conditions the collective effects of scattering dominate.
