Opis:: The main purpose of studying the dynamics of the geometric parameters of the country's living premises is to determine the patterns of their transformation as a result of changes in the lifestyle of the population. An analysis of official statistical information presented in the reports on population censuses and inventory of residential premises conducted in recent years in Russia, Japan and the United States made it possible to identify the dependence of changes in the number and area of living premises on the direction of development of the property structure in the country. Despite the relative stability of the reproduction of the traditional spatial image of the country's living premises, the change in its characteristics also depends on the level and character of the distribution of housing provision among the population. In the 19th century, a wide variety of living conditions with a low level of housing provision for the population led to an increase in state support for the construction of housing, which made it possible to narrow the geometric parameters of housing under construction and increase the average level of provision in countries. With the increase in the economic opportunities of households, it becomes preferable to purchase housing in private ownership, which makes it possible to expand the variety of living conditions and increase the average provision of housing for the population. The complete privatization of dwellings, observed at the end of the 20th century, leads to the emergence of private rent, which narrows the geometric characteristics of the dwelling under construction and increases the uneven housing supply again. During periods of economic crises, there are noticeable shifts in the transformation of the spatial image of a dwelling, associated with the search for the highest quality geometric forms of a dwelling, which change the direction of its reproduction during periods of restoration.

Opis:: Obserwacja doświadczeń polskich miast posiadających tereny kolejowe pokazuje, że pomimo niewątpliwych zalet kolej przyczyniła się do wzmocnienia podziałów przestrzennych i odseparowania poszczególnych obszarów. W dobie postępu technologicznego, tunelowanie linii kolejowych w centrach miast ułatwia proces inwestowania na tych wcześniej problemowych, ale eksponowanych obszarach w krajobrazie miasta i przyczynia się do ich rewitalizacji. Celem artykułu jest przybliżenie metody pracy nad zdegradowanym terenem po-kolejowym w niespójnej strukturze przestrzennej miasta i wykazanie w jaki sposób skuteczne projektowanie wspiera proces rewitalizacji dopełniając działania społeczne. Na wariantowych, studialnych przykładach przeanalizowano teren linii kolei wileńskiej i terenów okalających zlokalizowanych w warszawskiej dzielnicy Praga Północ. Artykuł wpisuje się w debatę dotyczącą właściwego wyznaczenia obszaru rewitalizacji na podstawie wiarygodnych danych zaczerpniętych z analiz uwarunkowań istniejących i projektowanych przeprowadzonych w kontekście przestrzenno-funkcjonalnym większych jednostek urbanistycznych.
Observation of experiences of Polish cities with railway areas shows that despite its unquestionable advantages, railway contributed to the strengthening of spatial divisions and the separation of individual areas. In the era of technological progress, tunneling of railway lines in city centers facilitates investment process in these previously problematic but exposed areas in the city landscape and contributes to their revitalization. The aim of this article is to present methods of work on a degraded post-railway area in an incoherent spatial structure of the city and to show how the effective design supports the revitalization process by complementing social activities. Based on variant, study examples, the area of the Vilnius railway line and the surrounding areas located in the Warsaw district of Praga Północ have been analyzed. The article is a part of the debate on the proper designation of the revitalization area on the basis of reliable data taken from the analyzes of existing and planned conditions in the spatial and functional context of larger urban units.

Opis:: Chinese fir [Cunninghamia lanceolata (Lamb.) Hook] is a fast-growing tree species that is widely planted for timber production in southern China. Many high-quality breeding systems for Chinese fir have been developed using genetic methods. Here, we systematically review progress in increasing Chinese fir timber volumes per unit forest area in China, using genetic methods. We comprehensively assess the objec- tives, strategies, and primary accomplishments of the first to fourth generations of a Chinese fir breeding program. Furthermore, we propose a genetic improvement program and protocol for Chinese fir, and out- line several recommendations with respect to the main challenges associated with using genetic methods to increase timber yields. Finally, we present a series of proposals to increase Chinese fir timber production in China. This review offers insight into genetic improvements that have increased timber volumes of Chi- nese fir over four generations of breeding, and provides direction for future genetic improvements to wood properties.

Opis:: Purpose: A theoretical description of the statutory regulation of fire rescue unit location in the cities and towns in Ukraine. Introduction: The article presents the results of scientific findings of a group of scientists of the Ukrainian Civil Protection Research Institute headed by the author of this article, aimed at increasing the effectiveness of the response system to dangerous events (fires) in Ukraine. Methodology: Analytical, probabilistic-statistical, expert estimates, estimate-based methods for determining the average speed of fire engines based on statistical data, HIL simulation methods for determining the location of fire rescue units, by employing GIS technologies. Results: An analysis of the mechanisms of the state regulation, by means of regulatory and technical regulations, of the fire-response system is presented, namely: the locations of fire rescue departments and the main criteria used to determine the areas of departure (service areas) of fire rescue units within cities and towns in Ukraine and the world. Also considered are the characteristics of the existing approaches to the location of fire rescue departments and the determination of the boundaries of the area of departure of fire rescue units in Ukraine.The presented data indicate the order and results of research into the implementation of the criterion of time of arrival of the fire rescue unit to the place of call (time criterion) based on the determination of the average speed of regular fire vehicles, depending on the type of city/town, population and other criteria affecting the reliability of the estimate. The provisions of amended regulations resulting from the regulatory and technical acts of Ukraine on the location of fire rescue departments and areas of departure of fire rescue units were also analysed.The analysis also covers the principle of the mechanism introduced in Ukraine for establishing the location of the fire rescue departments and the determination of the areas of departure of fire rescue units based on the time of arrival criterion.

Opis:: The paper presents a concise and thorough insight into the problem of overcoming potential Russian anti-access/area denial (A2/AD) operations, which may pose a major threat to Poland’s security. The geopolitical situation in the region is seriously determined by the Kremlin’s Foreign policy, which is aimed at restoring Russian dominance over its neighbouring countries and disrupting political and military cohesion of NATO. Against this background it seems essential for Poland to develop its modern Armed Forces, which being based on the Land Forces and the Territorial Defence Forces, could be effectively employed against potential military threats.

Opis:: Domain estimates are typically obtained using calibration estimators that are direct or modified direct. They are direct if they strictly use data within the domain of interest. They are modified direct if they use both data within and outside the domain of interest. An alternative way of producing these estimates is through small area procedures. In this article, we compare the performance of these two approaches via a simulation. The population is generated using a hierarchical model that includes both area effects and unit level random errors. The population is made up of mutually exclusive domains of different sizes, ranging from a small number of units to a large number of units. We select many independent simple random samples of fixed size from the population and compute various estimates for each sample using the available auxiliary information. The estimates computed for the simulation included the Horvitz-Thompson estimator, the synthetic estimator (indirect estimate), calibration estimators, and unit level based estimators (small area estimate). The performance of these estimators is summarized based on their design- based properties

Opis:: We review main small area estimation methods for the estimation of general nonlinear parameters focusing on FGT family of poverty indicators introduced by Foster, Greer and Thorbecke (1984). In particular, we consider direct estimation, the Fay-Herriot area level model (Fay and Herriot, 1979), the method of Elbers, Lanjouw and Lanjouw (2003) used by the World Bank, the empirical Best/Bayes (EB) method of Molina and Rao (2010) and its extension, the Census EB, and finally the hierarchical Bayes proposal of Molina, Nandram and Rao (2014). We put ourselves in the point of view of a practitioner and discuss, as objectively as possible, the benefits and drawbacks of each method, illustrating some of them through simulation studies.

Opis:: The Sustainable Use Directive (2009/128/EC) establishes a framework for European Community action to achieve the sustainable use of pesticides imposed restrictions in agro−aviation pesticides application. As a result of the creation of buffer zones, part of the endangered area must be excluded from spraying and the area will be fragmented. This article evaluated the impact of the size, shape and distance between the sprayed area and the aerodrome, on the efficiency and cost of agro−aviation spraying in Regional Directorate of the State Forests in Piła (western Poland) in 2013. The efficiency of agro−aviation spraying is highly positively correlated with the shape and size of sprayed area. Weak negative correlation was found with the distance between the sprayed area and the aerodrome. The obtained efficiency ranged from 23.37 to 198.98 ha/h, while the costs covered the span from 61.96 to 423.34 zł/ha. The structure of unit costs varied depending on the spraying parameters. The costs of aircraft charter and purchase of pesticides are dominating part of the whole process. Variability of the spraying costs causes that their averaging distorts the results and makes it difficult to plan the future costs.

The main purpose of this paper is to highlight some new developments in model-based SAE since the publication of the author's book. A large part of the new theory addressed practical issues associated with the model-based approach, and we present some of those methods for area level and unit level models. We also briefly mention some new work on synthetic estimation of area means or totals based on implicit models.

Opis:: Research into the phraseological component of dialects in different Ukrainian areas is especially relevant due to the fact that during the last decade the phraseology of dialects has been studied very intensively, despite all the difficulties connected with collecting dialect material and the unrefined methods of their researching. The article is devoted to the structural/semantic description of phraseological units with phytomyn components, which make up the phraseologic/semantic line “unclever, stupid”. The source for this research was material from dictionaries, phrasal dictionaries, and from collections of modern words from three dialects of the Ukrainian language. Analysis of phraseological units and their components in space allowed for the determination of either non-fixed phrases or the absence of their expected components, the firmness of different dialectal phenomena, and system phenomena within phraseology.

Opis:: Recent discoveries of ammonites in the Štramberk Limestone in the type area of their occurrence near the town of Štramberk supplement existing data on the Tithonian age of the limestones. Franconites cf. fascipartitus occurs in the lower part of the Lower Tithonian (Neochetoceras mucronatum Zone). Lemencia ciliata has a zonal character in the upper part of the Lower Tithonian. Richterella richteri is a subzonal species of the upper part of the Lower Tithonian in the Mediterranean and Submediterranean areas (Semiformiceras fallauxi Zone). All of the new discoveries are referable to the faunal associations of the Submediterranean bioprovince, and are in agreement with existing knowledge of it. Sexual dimorphism was seen in the genus Richterella, with the recognition of both macroconchs and microconchs in the type species of Richterella, i.e. R. richteri. The stratigraphic position of these recent ammonite discoveries in the Štramberk Limestone at the Kotouč Quarry does not support the stratigraphy of the limestones based on the distribution of calpionellids, as previously assumed by other authors. The recent collection of ammonites confirms that the Štramberk Limestone belongs to the lower Tithonian and lower Berriasian and also represents the lower Tithonian as a shallow-water facies.

Opis:: The GPS system is widely used in navigation and the GPS receiver can offer long-term stable absolute positioning information. The overall system performance depends largely on the signal environments. The position obtained from GPS is often degraded due to obstruction and multipath effect caused by buildings, city infrastructure and vegetation, whereas, the current performance achieved by inertial navigation systems (INS) is still relatively poor due to the large inertial sensor errors. The complementary features of GPS and INS are the main reasons why integrated GPS/INS systems are becoming increasingly popular. GPS/INS systems offer a high data rate, high accuracy position and orientation that can work in all environments, particularly those where satellite availability is restricted. In the paper integration algorithm of GPS and INS systems data for pedestrians in urban area is presented. For data integration an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) algorithm is proposed. Complementary characteristics of GPS and INS with EKF can overcome the problem of huge INS drifts, GPS outages, dense multipath effect and other individual problems associated with these sensors.

Opis:: Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to present a theory that defi nes the creation of an area that includes many countries, in which there is one, single currency and the countries are characterized by a diversifi ed productivity. That is why the paper shows the importance of labor productivity parity for the creation of an integrating and non-discriminatory currency area and indicates the role of this value in the theory of the exchange rate. Additionally, the paper analyzes the risks arising from joining the eurozone. Methodology: The basic methodology is defi ned by a fundamental analysis of the exchange rate and its relations to labor productivity parity. The author formulates a theory of a currency area that integrates economies with different levels of labor productivity. The methodology is supplemented by calculations and a ranking of countries according to the Q-index. Findings: Listing the member countries and candidate countries of the eurozone according to the labor productivity index has demonstrated that the founding member states are characterized by a Q-index close to 3.30. The countries that are already in the eurozone with an index of less than 2.5 belong to the group where problems are accumulating. Countries that are candidates for the eurozone with an index below 2.0, such as Poland, cannot become member of the eurozone. The principles of creating a currency area can however be modifi ed in such a way that countries with various levels of Q can become members, by developing cooperation that is benefi cial to the socio-economic development. Originality: The labor productivity index Q is a result of elaborating an original concept of the production function that is suitable for the purposes of economic analysis. According to this function the Q-index is equivalent to the category labor share and the variable F corresponds to TFP. The function overcomes the disadvantageous features of econometric models of production identifi ed by Joan Robinson and the obtained results modify the theory of the exchange rate, creating good prospects for general monetary integration.
