Abstract
In order to describe the nonlinear coupling of a large amplitude electromagnetic pump wave with the low-frequency modes in the ionosphere, we introduce new systems of equations that are related to the conventional Zakharov equations. In particular, we consider the excitation of ion-acoustic, electron gyro, and collisional gradient drift modes.Keywords
