Acclimaatioksi
Acclimaatioksi is a term used in certain contexts to describe the process of adaptation or adjustment. It refers to the physiological, behavioral, or even cultural changes an organism or individual undergoes to better suit a new or altered environment. This can range from the biological acclimatization of an animal to a new climate, such as humans adjusting to higher altitudes, to the more abstract acclimatization of a new employee to a workplace culture.
The underlying principle of acclimatization is that stability and optimal functioning are achieved through gradual modification.
For example, in a physiological context, acclimatization to heat involves increased sweating and improved cardiovascular regulation.
