    "abstract": "During Type III solar radio bursts, beam-driven upper-hybrid wave turbulence is converted into electromagnetic emissions at the fundamental plasma frequency and its harmonic, through a chain of various linear and nonlinear wave processes. In this work, we mainly investigate the relative roles and interplay of two key mechanisms: the nonlinear decay of Langmuir/$\\mathcal Z$-mode waves and their linear transformations on random density fluctuations and, in particular, their mode conversion at constant frequency into electromagnetic waves. Using two-dimensional Particle-In-Cell simulations, we employ a diagnostic approach based on large ensembles of virtual satellites that record local waveforms, enabling detailed temporal and spatial characterization of wave processes in randomly inhomogeneous plasmas. This method allows robust statistical analysis and direct comparison with spacecraft observations. The study focuses on the dependence of wave dynamics on the average level of density fluctuations and the plasma magnetization. Our results quantify the occurrence rate of decay under varying physical conditions and demonstrate how developed plasma density turbulence can significantly alter the balance between nonlinear wave-wave interactions and linear wave transformations. These findings provide new insights into the mechanisms responsible for electromagnetic emissions during type III radio bursts and strengthen the connection between numerical simulations and in situ solar wind measurements, offering a valuable framework for the interpretation of future space-based waveform observations.",
