MA is Mfg Plant Code (see http://www.harriger.com/exptire.htm), L9 is a tire size code, ABCD is optional manufacturer info, 036 is mfg date (in this case third week of unspecified year ending in 6, but not 2006) The newer tires are using 4 digits, the first 2 = the week, and the last 2 = the year. For example 4202 = 42nd week of 2002.
Desertification is a type of land degradation in which a relatively dry land region becomes increasingly arid, typically losing its bodies of water as well as vegetation and wildlife.esertification often causes rural lands to become unable to support the same sized populations that previously lived there. This results in mass migrations out of rural areas and into urban areas, particularly in Africa.
The Desert Biome. Deserts are often defined as areas that receive less than 10 inches of average annual rainfall, but a more accurate defining factor is aridity. In addition to low rainfall, deserts are characterized by a high rate of water loss from the ground (evaporation) and through plants (transpiration).he Desert Biome.
