In view of the challenges faced by geophysical research in the future decades and the observed decline in interest in this field of study in Poland, itis necessary to mobilize the geophysical environment. One of the main causes of the crisis in the popularity of this field of study are changes in the economic paradigm, in which an important determinant and goal of activities is the declared departure from fossil fuels, especially coal and oil. Obviously, this has a direct impact on the prospects of geophysical research, whose main contractor on a global scale is the oil industry. With the depletion of the best available deposits, there is a need to reach for deposits that were increasingly difficult to discover and exploit, which contributed to the progress in geophysical research methods that followed the development of technology and information methods - the basis of modern geophysical analyses. The announced definitive departure from fossil fuels coincided in Poland with the end of the shale-gas boom and the announcement of the program of resigning from coal mining. These announcements aroused the belief that the demand for geophysical research will also expire in the coming years together with the prospects for financing such research. However, this belief is wrong. A significant stream of funds will be directed at the development of geophysical research on a global scale, and the current sponsors of utilitarian geophysical research will occupy new niches on the market, e.g. in the accumulation of energy, storage of greenhouse gases and the search for raw materials, the lack of which is increasingly felt by the most developed economies. Along with the growing awareness of the deepening climate crisis and the destruction of the natural environment engulfing the planet, the need increases to recalculate the environmental costs of economic activity, in which broadly understood geophysical sciences can undoubtedly help. Geophysical analysis of huge datasets requires modern computational methods such as numerical modelling, machine learning and artificial intelligence. The development of these fields will therefore be necessary, but also a difficult challenge for the scientific community in Poland. In this work, we will indicate mainly the prospective areas of the economy and the science, related to the broadly understood energy transformation that requires a significant share of geophysical research. The review of the issues and methodology of current geophysical problems and proposed solutions has been arranged in accordance with the directions of research in the field of earth sciences, subjectively highlighting the tasks that seem to be the most promising and/or scientifically attractive. The text deals with the issues related to climatology, hydrology and hydrogeology, environment, geological hazards, renewable and non-renewable energy sources, waste storage, energy storage, critical raw materials, and the structure and physical condition of the Earth's crust.

Cities across the globe perceive their opportunities for digital transition pathways. This paper presents a project and strategy-based assessment of smart city ambitions in the light of sustainable urban development pathways in the European Union capitals considering the programming period 2014-2020. The purpose of the research is to understand better the smart city trends in Europe and identify any correlation between smart city and sustainability ambitions through the European capitals. The basis of the research was the official project result platforms of European funds with priorities related to smart cities. The collected best practices of transnational smart city projects provide statistics from the previous programming period and draw attention to the developing trends of smart city functions and the activity level of European capitals in the digital transition. Results show that between 2014 and 2020 nearly half of the capitals owned a specific smart city strategic document. Evaluating the smart urban performance of the capitals, it can be stated that most smart solutions were implemented related to mobility and environment in the previous period. Furthermore, it was also considered whether smart city projects could facilitate the shift toward sustainability. Based on the assessment of their planning strategies, a complex image of the European capitals has been revealed in their smart city development concepts; their strategic-level planning can be understood better, which is essential for policymaking in the era of digitalisation, identifying synergies with sustainable urban development ambitions, and monitoring the reached targets at the city level.

According to (McKinsey & Company, 2020), drilling and extraction operations are responsible for 10% of approximately 4 billion tons of CO2 emitted yearly by Oil and Gas sector. To lower carbon emissions, companies used different strategies including electrifying equipment, changing power sources, rebalancing portfolios, and expanding carbon-capture-utilization-storage (CCUS). Technology evolution with digital transformation strategy is essential for reinventing and optimizing existing workflow, reducing lengthy processes and driving efficiency for sustainable operations. Details subsurface studies take up-to 6–12 months, including seismic & static analysis, reserve estimation and simulation to support drilling and extraction operations. Manual and repetitive processes, aging infrastructure with limited computing-engine are factors for long computation hours. To address subsurface complexity, hundred-thousand scenarios are simulated that lead to tremendous power consumption. Excluding additional simulation hours, each workstation uses 24k kWh/month for regular 40 hours/month and produces 6.1kg CO2. Machine Learning (ML) become crucial in digital transformation, not only saving time but supporting wiser decision-making. An 80%-time-reduction with ML Seismic and Static modeling deployed in a reservoir study. Significant time reduction from days-tohours-to-minutes with cloud-computing deployed to simulate hundreds-thousands of scenarios. These time savings help to reduce CO2-emissions resulting in a more sustainable subsurface workflow to support the 2050 goal.

Purpose: The purpose of the article is to assess the level of digital competence of young Poles against the background of selected European countries in the context of changes occurring in the labor market. Design/methodology/approach: The level of digital competence of young people from 30 selected European countries was diagnosed on the basis of the development pattern method by Z. Hellwig. To develop a synthetic Z. Hellwig measure, 23 diagnostic characteristics that reflect the level of skills of young Europeans in creating digital content, using databases, communicating and collaborating online, using ICT in different types of online activities, and protecting privacy and personal data online were selected. The study covered a group of young people aged 16-24, representing a potential labor supply that is particularly relevant to the development of the digital economy. Findings: In the light of the characteristics adopted for the study, the level of digital competence of young Poles is low. Young Finns, Maltese, Dutch, Spanish and Icelanders have the highest levels of digital competence. In contrast, particularly low levels of these competences are seen among young Bulgarians and Romanians. Research limitations/implications: The presented research can contribute to further in-depth analysis of the impact of the digital competency deficit on the economic development of the countries included in the analysis in the long term, including Poland in particular. Practical implications: The results of the research can provide guidance to public authorities in creating and evaluating strategies for the development of digital competences in Poland and the other countries covered by the study. Originality/value: The article indicates the changes that the labor market is undergoing as a consequence of the digital transformation of the economy. A synthetic indicator of digital competence was constructed, taking into account the diagnostic characteristics selected by the author of the article, which in their opinion are particularly relevant to the development of the digital economy. Leaders in the level of digital competence of young people have been identified. The distance between them and Poland was also diagnosed. The findings are addressed to the public authorities of the European countries surveyed.

Purpose: With increasing digitalization, the debate on the direction of transformation in various sectors of the economy and their ability to keep up with the changes in this area is becoming increasingly complex. The energy industry is one of the key sectors in the economy, and as such it must follow trends and adapt to changing conditions. The aim of the paper is to diagnose and assess the level of progress in digital transformation among Polish energy sector enterprises. Design/methodology/approach: The research was conducted on a group of 110 entities, with a survey questionnaire. The gathered data was analyzed using descriptive statistics. Findings: Although the level of employing Industry 4.0 tools in Polish energy sector enterprises is at a low level, managers recognize the importance of following the path toward digital transformation. The awareness of particular digital transformation prerequisites differs depending on the phase of the digital transformation process. Research limitations/implications: Among the limitations of the research procedure, issues such as the single respondent design and the exclusion of micro entities from the research should be noted. However, the exclusion of micro entities from the analysis was intentional, and this area deserves the attention of researchers. The specificity of the functioning and organization of the activity of micro enterprises may distort the image of the sector. Referring to the single respondent design, it was assumed that in this phase of the research it is reasonable to collect individual opinions specific to a given enterprise. It would be worth extending the analysis by conducting in-depth interviews or attempting more in-depth research at the level of individual entities. Originality/value: This article contributes to the knowledge of the energy sector in Poland in the context of Industry 4.0.

Czwarta rewolucja przemysłowa i związana z nią transformacja cyfrowa rozwija się niezwykle dynamicznie wprowadzając istotne ulepszenia w przemyśle. Szczególnie obecna jest w procesach wytwórczych, zmieniając w sposób fundamentalny funkcjonowanie przedsiębiorstw. Jednak wiele rozwiązań technologicznych stosowanych w tym obszarze może być z powodzeniem wykorzystane również na innych płaszczyznach. Jedną z nich są siły zbrojne. W artykule autorzy dokonali analizy przykładowego procesu funkcjonowania żołnierzy w toku codziennego porządku dnia aby wskazać, że możliwie jest zastosowanie prostych rozwiązań z zakresu elektronicznego zbierania danych i uzyskanie wymiernych korzyści. Tak też określono główny cel badania. Aby go zrealizować autorzy dokonali szczegółowej analizy i oceny wy-branego procesu (ewidencjonowanie faktu opuszczania pododdziału przez podchorążych) wskazując jego niedoskonałości. Na tej podstawie zaproponowali rozwiązanie optymalizujące jego najważniejsze parametry (czas, niezawodność). Zaproponowane rozwiązanie, polegające na wykorzystaniu rejestratorów zbliżeniowych i błyskawicznym odczycie danych wychodzącego żołnierza pozwoliło na rozwiązanie problemu badawczego tj. odpowiedzi na pytanie: czy możliwe i zasadne jest wsparcie wybranych procesów funkcjonowania żołnierzy na pododdziale z wykorzystaniem nowoczesnych narzędzi przemysłu 4.0? Pozwoliło to zweryfikować hipotezę badawczą zakładającą, że zastosowanie prostych narzędzi wykorzystujących nowe technologie może w istotny sposób usprawnić funkcjonowanie badanego procesu. Osiągnięcie założonego celu badania było możliwe dzięki wykorzystaniu takich metod, narzędzi i technik badawczych jak analiza literatury, synteza, metoda obserwacyjna, analiza statystyczna, porównanie i wnioskowanie. Artykuł składa się ze wstępu a następnie z przeglądu literatury z obszaru zarówno rewolucji przemysłowej jak i modernizacji sił zbrojnych. Zasadniczą część stanowi badanie statystyczne czasów trwania procesu wypisywania się podchorążych w niezbędnej dokumentacji podczas opuszczania miejsca zakwaterowania, jego charakterystyka i ocena. Na tej podstawie zaproponowano możliwe rozwiązanie stwierdzonych niedociągnięć. Artykuł wieńczy podsumowanie przeprowadzonych analiz i wnioski końcowe, a także rekomendacje w zakresie dalszych analiz.

The fourth industrial revolution is especially present in manufacturing processes. However, many technological solutions used in this area can also be successfully used on other levels. One of them is the armed forces. In the article, the authors analysed a process of the soldiers functioning in the course of the daily routine to indicate that it is possible to apply simple solutions in the field of electronic data collection and obtain measurable benefits. This is also how the main aim of the study was defined. The authors made a detailed analysis and evaluation of the selected process, pointing to its imperfections and proposing a solution that would optimize its most important parameters (time, reliability). The proposed solution, involving the use of proximity recorders made it possible to solve the research problem, i.e. to answer the question: is it possible and justified to support selected processes of the functioning of soldiers in a sub-unit with the use of modern logistics 4.0 tools? This allowed to verify the research hypothesis that the use of simple tools using new technologies can significantly im-prove the functioning of the examined process. The following research methods, tools and techniques were used: literature analysis, synthesis, observational method, statistical analysis, comparison and inference. The article consists of an introduction and then a review of the literature. The main part is a statistical study. Based on this, a possible solution to the identified shortcomings was proposed. The article ends with a summary and final conclusions.
