The enhanced absorption of radio waves (with a frequency close to the upper hybrid frequency) in the equatorial electrojet by resonant coupling to electrojet irregularities and damped upper hybrid modes is investigated. It is found that, under normal ionospheric conditions, the absorption coefficient for such radio waves may be increased by a factor of as large as 100.
