Datasets

Cinema Belgica is a platform for sharing, enriching and analysing data on cinema history in Belgium from 1896 onwards. The data itself derives from fourteen existing datasets covering key aspects of film production, distribution, exhibition, programming, censorship, and reception. In 2018, an interuniversity infrastructure project (FWO Hercules) was set up between the University of Ghent, the University of Antwerp, and the University of Amsterdam to integrate these different datasets into a single database. It currently contains 26600 films, 3258 cinemas, 10658 people, 16801 programmes and ...

This data collection presents a fully harmonized data set originating in several research projects on post-war cinema programming. The collection consists of data of feature films screened for public viewing in cinemas in the cities Bari (Italy), Antwerp and Ghent (Belgium), Gothenburg (Sweden), Leicester (United Kingdom) and Rotterdam (Netherlands) for the year 1952.

Extreme climate events such as droughts, cold snaps, and hurricanes can be powerful agents of natural selection, producing acute selective pressures very different from the everyday pressures acting on organisms. However, it remains unknown whether these infrequent but severe disruptions are quickly erased by quotidian selective forces, or whether they have the potential to durably shape biodiversity patterns across regions and clades. Here, we show that hurricanes have enduring evolutionary impacts on the morphology of anoles, a diverse Neotropical lizard clade. We first demonstrate a ...
