Those people had not possessed the luxury of the customary acclimation period between inoculation and transfer to the colonies.

Changes to pH should be closely monitored because rapid changes of more than 1 or 2 units can inhibit microbial activity and may require an extended acclimation period before the microbes resume their activity.

After an acclimation period there, the tigers will be able to roam freely in an environment similar to their natural habitat in Asia.

This acclimation period allows them to withstand these new stresses.

"We expect there to be a normal acclimation period," said Ms. Daglian, who said she anticipated more use.

Based on the assumption that stomata opened during the cold acclimation period, we believe that more effective water movement occurs in FR compared to FS plants at 2 C. Osmotic potential difference between FR and FS plants account for this phenomenon.

Under the conditions of these experiments, we have ruled out the effect of photosynthesis since the light intensity was not at a level that resulted in foliage dry weight increase during the cold acclimation period [ 21 ] .

For workers normally assigned to the colonies, the series of injections is carried out during an acclimation period prior to their arrival, but the survivors of Dokaal do not have that luxury.

Space suits are often pressurized to several psi lower than stations' capsules or shuttles and since they still use pure O, an acclimation period is common in the airlock to remove nitrogen and other gases from the bloodstream.
