A nonlinear theory is developed of the interaction of a quasimonochromatic packet of electrostatic waves with resonant particles in a weakly inhomogeneous plasma. Expressions are obtained for the distribution function in the resonance range of phase space and also for the nonlinear decrement (increment) of the wave. In particular, it is shown that the nonlinear growth rate at large distances from the front boundary is determined by the difference between the mean distribution functions of the trapped and untrapped resonant particles. A study has been made of the qualitative peculiarities of the nonlinear evolution of the packet in a weakly inhomogeneous plasma.
