A geografia desempenha um papel importante quando existem trabalhos que tentam relacionar sociedade e natureza, estabelecendo formas (ou variáveis) para qualificar os elementos que compõem a paisagem. Neste trabalho, o objetivo foi aplicar a classificação da vulnerabilidade socioambiental adaptada de Medeiros e Souza (2016), com contribuições de Milanezi e Pereira (2016), como forma de contribuir com a gestão costeira de Paracuru- Ceará. Paracuru é um município costeiro, em que estão presentes diversos ambientes e três Unidades de Conservação Estaduais localizados no rio Curu e nas dunas de Paracuru. Para a análise, sobrepôs-se o mapa de vulnerabilidade ambiental (gerado a partir dos mapas de unidades geoambientais e de uso e ocupação) e de vulnerabilidade social, utilizando 17 variáveis incluídas no cálculo do índice organizados por setores censitários, menor unidade amostral. Foi observado trechos de vulnerabilidade socioambiental alta no setor próximo do rio Curu, na localidade de Santa Rita, com área de interseção de 2,3km² sede urbana localidade denominada de 2,3km² de interseção e setor 16, nas localidades de Muriti, Córrego do Curu e Pedrinhas, com interseção de aproximadamente 800 m². Nas dunas a sobreposição foi predominante de vulnerabilidade ambiental alta e vulnerabilidade social média – alta. Espera-se que as informações possam indicar os ambientes e seções da cidade que são mais suscetíveis e que essas áreas precisam de maior proteção. Socio-environmental vulnerability as a basis for coastal management in the municipality of Paracuru - CearáA B S T R A C TGeography makes an important role when there are works that try to relate society and nature, establishing forms (or variables) to qualify the elements that make up the landscape. In this work, the objective was to apply the classification of socio-environmental vulnerability adapted from Medeiros and Souza (2016), with contributions from Milanezi and Pereira (2016), as a way to contribute to the coastal management of Paracuru-Ceará. Paracuru is a coastal municipality, where there are several environments and three State Conservation Units located on the Curu River and on the Paracuru dunes. For the analysis, the map of environmental vulnerability (generated from the maps of geoenvironmental units and of use and occupation) and social vulnerability was superimposed, using 17 variables included in the calculation of the index organized by census sectors, the smallest sample unit. It was observed stretches of high socio-environmental vulnerability in the sector in the APA of the Curu River, in the locality of Santa Rita, with an intersection area of 2.3 km², in the urban headquarters, places called plateau da barra and secondary carnaubinha 3.1 km² intersection and sector 16, in the localities of Muriti, Córrego do Curu and Pedrinhas, with an intersection of approximately 800 m². In the dunes, the overlap was predominant of high environmental vulnerability and medium - high social vulnerability. It is hoped that the information can serve as a basis for indicating the paths that management should follow to achieve sustainability.Keywords: Landscape, socio-environmental vulnerability, coastal planning.

As usually occurs, there is quite a variety of topics in the May issue of College & Research Libraries. However, there is interesting thread running through about half of the articles in the issue, speaking to the treatment of media, images, and music. Working on a college campus, it is impossible not to see how embedded media has become in people’s lives, as both consumers and producers. Creating and sharing videos through social media, posting to YouTube channels, and circulation of memes has become an everyday reality. It is a reality that even pervades spoken language in the real world with comments like “You’ve become a meme.”
