D002001	Adipose Tissue, Brown	A thermogenic form of adipose tissue composed of BROWN ADIPOCYTES. It is found in newborns of many species including humans, and in hibernating mammals. Brown fat is richly vascularized, innervated, and densely packed with MITOCHONDRIA which can generate heat directly from the stored lipids.

D003081	Cold Climate	A climate characterized by COLD TEMPERATURE for a majority of the time during the year.	Polar Regions,Climate, Cold,Climates, Cold,Cold Climates,Polar Region,Region, Polar,Regions, Polar
D000064	Acclimatization	Adaptation to a new environment or to a change in the old.	Acclimation
D000273	Adipose Tissue	Specialized connective tissue composed of fat cells (ADIPOCYTES). It is the site of stored FATS, usually in the form of TRIGLYCERIDES. In mammals, there are two types of adipose tissue, the WHITE FAT and the BROWN FAT. Their relative distributions vary in different species with most adipose tissue being white.
