A water-energy-food nexus framework for sustainable agriculture in water-stressed regions

A comprehensive systems analysis reveals that Pakistan's agricultural sector is on an unsustainable trajectory. Current input-intensive practices cannot meet future food security needs without increasing ecological stress. A new study published in Agricultural Systems presents the first quantitative framework for transitioning to sustainable agriculture through integrated water-energy-food (WEF) nexus management. This framework has broad relevance for semi-arid regions worldwide.

Most pet dogs carry a little wolf inside them; tiny snippets of wolf DNA that slipped into dog genomes after domestication. A new study, published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, has found that almost two-thirds of dog breeds have a small amount of wolf genes, which may have provided them with unique advantages to survive in diverse human environments.Continue ReadingCategory: Biology, ScienceTags: Pets, Dogs, Genetics, DNA, Evolution

It's the JWST's turn to look for an intermediate mass black hole

Intermediate mass black holes (IMBH), if they exist, have between about 100 and 1,000 solar masses, placing them in between stellar black holes and supermassive black holes. But while there's plenty of evidence for both stellar mass black holes and supermassive black holes, the evidence for IMBHs isn't as convincing. There are many candidates, but there's no wide agreement on any of them. Yet our theories of black holes show there should be something in between stellar black holes and supermassive black holes, and IMBHs could be the missing link.

The making of meaning

The making of meaning

There's something so deeply human about making something yourself.It doesn't have to be big or impressive. Sometimes, for me, it's just cutting out a small sticker using parchment paper, markers and white printer paper for my journal; folding paper into something pretty; baking a fresh batch of cookies; or just writing a letter in cursive by hand.I like the process of it. The way you start with nothing - a blank page, some string, a lump of clay - and somehow, after a little while, there's something that didn't exist before.I've never made things because I was forced to. It hasn't been about saving money or doing it "the hard way." I just like the feeling of creating something from scratch, especially when it's for someone I care about. When I make gifts for my mom, I almost always end up with something handmade, including cards, drawings or tiny things I spent hours putting together. It's not perfect, but that's what I like. You can feel the time and thought that went into it. It's like giving someone a little piece of how you see them.I think we forget how much we can make with our own hands. Everything can easily be bought or downloaded now that creating something yourself almost feels old-fashioned. But to me, that's what makes it special. When I draw or build or craft something, I'm reminded that I can bring an idea into the real world. That's kind of amazing, when you think about it. Humans have been doing that forever, and it's still just as satisfying.At Hopkins, I've also been spending time in the PAVA Center Makerspace. It's where people can design things, 3D print models, handle wood and learn how to use machines and tools. It's weird that so much of it involves technology but still feels very human. You're still shaping something, still thinking about form and balance and texture. I like watching an idea slowly become tangible, piece by piece, print by print. Sometimes it fails completely, and you have to start over. But even that's part of the fun. You're learning how things come together, or sometimes how they fall apart, and you start over.Making things teaches patience. You can't rush a project or force it to look exactly like you imagined. In fact, most of the time when I'm making something, the end product looks completely different from what I envisioned at the start. You learn to let the process happen, to accept imperfections and find joy in the attempt itself. And when it's done, no matter how small, it's yours. You know every step it took to get there.I think that's why it feels so meaningful. Making something yourself isn't just about the final product. The sounds of the scissors cutting paper, spreading sunflower oil over a canvas before putting on oil paint, the hum of a printer, the way time slips by quietly and fast when you're focused on something you care about. It's one of the few times where doing feels just as good as finishing.I like that. I like that I can create, not just consume. It reminds me that effort, even small effort, adds up to something beautiful. Maybe it's just a sticker, a painting, a card or a tiny piece of decor for my desk. But I made it, and that feels enough.Kathryn Jung is a freshman from Silver Spring, MD, majoring in Biomedical Engineering. Her column reflects the process of creating and how the small things we make, notice and hold close bring meaning to everyday life.
