Parametric instabilities excited in nonuniform plasmas by spatially localized pump fields oscillating near the local low-hybrid frequency are analaytically investigated. Corresponding threshold conditions, temporal growth rates, and spatial amplification factors are obtained for the oscillating-two-stream instability and the decay instabilities due to nonlinear electron and ion Landau dampings.
