Acclimatization - Wikipedia
WEBAcclimatization or acclimatisation (also called acclimation or acclimatation) is the process in which an individual organism adjusts to a change in its environment (such as a change in altitude, temperature, humidity, photoperiod, or pH), allowing it to maintain fitness across a range of environmental conditions.

Such responses are more or less habitual and reversible should environmental conditions revert to an earlier state. The numerous sudden changes that evoke rapid and short-term responses.

WEBAcclimatization is defined as a process where an organism adjusts its behaviour or physiology in response to changes in its environment. The changes in the physiology and behaviour of a single organism happens in a short period of time within its lifetime. It is also reversible across most cases.

WEBAcclimation is the process by which a microbial population adapts to degrade a compound to which it is exposed. Given a population which, on initial exposure, appears to have no significant degradative ability against a target compound, acclimation may involve three different processes.
