0 the process of changing to suit different conditions of life, weather, etc., or the act of making someone or something do this: --
Before testing, animals were given a total of 10 - 15 min period for light adaptation, at maximal white light intensity, and acclimatization.
At first the expedition was thought of as an aid for the acclimatization program.
They were kept at least 1 week in the laboratory for acclimatization before starting the experiment.
Protection from the effects of cold is certainly far more important than acclimatization.
Grafted plants were transferred to a mist chamber (> 95% rh) for eight days, after which the relative humidity was reduced gradually for acclimatization.
The process of acclimatization caused high mortality rates for all species, between 60 and 90%.
The data suggest that conditioning or acclimatization had occurred.
The experiment began after a 14-day acclimatization period.
