So it is natural for it to dry up and go salty dust to blow around for a while, and not an ecological disaster caused by climate change or excessive agricultura

  Yes, although all those things you said could be true at the same time -- it's both natural for it to happen, but perhaps not on the same time scale which has been accelerated by agricultural uses; It's largely a closed body of water so there's not a whole lot of water flowing in to replace what gets pumped out, or to be diverted. Just because it's happened multiple times before, doesn't mean it wasn't an ecological disaster for the lake/marsh ecosystems. And by the same implication you're making, is it not natural for it to be fuller than it currently is?
