Yes, but it's worse than that:
A microphone indoors, in a 20 degree centigrade measuring room...
The same microphone outdoors, in humidity and 10 degrees - it's not the
same microphone any longer. Flexibility of material and mechanical sizes
and shapes, everything is different. You have to consider that some very
important factors depend on thousands of millimeters only.
Mic's in rainforrest is mostly okay, as long as you don't get fungus
growing at the membranes. (I have seen such fungus growing between camera
lenses!)
