Abstract

Atmospheric changes in Central Asia during the 20th centuryi, ii are influenced by the amount of dust stormsiii and other climatic parameters. The arid zones generate enormous quantities of dust particles which undergo transformation, transport and sedimentation, significantly affecting the climate and other aspects of the natural environment.
