Abstract
Skin and body temp. patterns on exposure to cold air change with continuing exposure. The adapted person tends to keep the extremities warmer than an unadapted person under similar cold stress. The expts. reported demonstrate this change in a period of 14 days of exposure for 16-18 hrs. per day.Keywords
