<abstract displayLabel="Summary">The present paper concerns acclimation to three substantially different hot climates with equivalent Wet Bulb Globe Temperatures (WBGT). This frequently applied index for heat, integrates air temperature, humidity, velocity and radiation. It is hypothesized that climates with the same WBGT value, though not developed on a physiological basis, impose an equal thermal strain irrespective of the actual composition of thermal factors. I this is true, it follows that: The process of acclimation are similar for equivalent hot climates and acclimation to a defined climate equal confers equal acclimation to any other equivalent hot climate</abstract>
