12. In [9] a different name for this phenomenon was suggested - neutrino oscillation length resonance. We prefer to follow the original terminology of [3,4]

17. In refs [3,4,6] these conditions were derived for the particular case k = k′, which, however, includes the most important principal resonance with k = k′ = 0.
18. For a geometric interpretation of the parametric resonance in terms of the spin precession in magnetic field, see [8,17,18], The analogy with a pendulum with vertically oscillating point of support was discussed in [11]

26. The parametric enhancement of neutrino oscillations in the earth for neutrinos that travel significant distances in the earth's core was found numerically in a number of earlier papers [25]. However, in these papers the parametric nature of the effect has not been recognized
