Processes for identifying factors that affect dust storms generation and the solutions for combating these phenomena are not separable from the activities conducted for determining the sources of dust storm. Hence, identification of the factors that generate dust storms and the combating procedures must be based on temporal patterns and spatial distributions of the phenomena in source areas. It must also be based on related natural and human parameters of these areas. For example, as in the investigations some agricultural lands are recognized as sources where generate dust particles, the role of human activities is evident in developing of these areas. It is obvious that the approaches to combat the dust storm resulted from human devastating activities are different from those originated from natural factors. In other words, the most efficient methods to control the phenomena are those with the highest compatibility with natural and human factors.
