The effect of electron acceleration by intense ionospheric plasma turbulence induced by a high-power radio wave is studied theoretically, under conditions when the turbulence frequency is nearly equal to harmonics of the electron-cyclotron frequency. The turbulence located in a thin layer at the region of the pump-wave upper-hybrid resonance gives rise to the formation of an intense electron distribution-function tail at high energies. Given the resonantly absorbed fraction of the pump-wave energy and the typical plasma turbulence scale, one can estimate the turbulence energy density and calculate the modified electron distribution function.
