'Umweltbedingung' (environmental condition) is made up of 'Umwelt' (environment) and 'Bedingung' (condition). It refers to a condition that arises from or is shaped by the natural or social environment.
Die Umweltbedingungen in dieser Region verändern sich durch den Klimawandel.
The environmental conditions in this region are changing due to climate change.
Common collocations include 'unter bestimmten Umweltbedingungen' (under certain environmental conditions), 'ungünstige Umweltbedingungen' (unfavorable environmental conditions), and 'an die Umweltbedingungen angepasst sein' (to be adapted to the environmental conditions). The word is particularly common in texts about biology, ecology, and agriculture.
Viele Tiere können sich an schwierige Umweltbedingungen anpassen.
Many animals can adapt to difficult environmental conditions.
The preposition 'unter' (under) with the dative is often used to describe the conditions in which something happens or lives. In the plural, the phrase is therefore 'unter bestimmten Umweltbedingungen' (under certain environmental conditions).
Die Samen keimen nur unter günstigen Umweltbedingungen.
The seeds germinate only under favorable environmental conditions.
