Food supply chain resilience model for critical infrastructure collapses due to natural disasters [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Food Journal, 2021
PurposeCritical infrastructure (CI) plays an essential role in reading, reacting and responding while dealing with natural disasters. This study address food supply chain resilience by proposing an FSC resilience model that explains the food product and transport flow via production, processing, distribution and retailing in circumstances of (CI ...

The relationship between artificial food supply and natural food selection in two troops of commensal Hamadryas Baboons Papio hamadryas (Mammalia: Primates: Cercopithecidae) in Saudi Arabia

open access: yesJournal of Threatened Taxa, 2017
The Hamadryas Baboon is the only nonhuman primate to inhabit the Arabian Peninsula.  In Saudi Arabia, Hamadryas Baboons are known to rely on both human and natural plant foods.  We examined the relationship between artificial food supply and natural food selection in two commensal hamadryas troops in different habitats in Saudi Arabia.
