Incised valleys were not widely recognized prior to the 1980s. Most early workers forced the isolated, incised-valley deposits along an uncomformity into a single continuous unit, ignored them by including them within larger stratigraphic units, or interpreted them as deltaic distributaries or non-incised fluvial channels. In the last decade, intense interest in the influence that changes in accommodation space have on stratigraphic organization has focused attention on incised-valley systems, because they are one of the most visible records of major decreases in accommodation. In practical terms, they are also a significant key to the identification of sequence-bounding uncomformities. As a result, many successions have been re-examined and incised-valley fills are being found in rapidly growing numbers. This volume is an outgrowth of this widespread interest in incised-valley sedimentation. Many of the papers were initially presented at the Special Session on "Recognition and Facies of Incised Valley Fills" held at the AAPG-SEPM Annual Meeting (Calgary) in June, 1992.

Sequence stratigraphy has advanced considerably since the early applications of the concepts on seismic data. It attempts to discern the migration of facies re sulting from changes in a combination of factors such as, sea level, tectonics, climate and sediment flux, and integrates it with a meaningful chronostratigraphy. The stratigraphic record is envisioned as a framework of repetitive packages of genetically-related strata, formed in response to the shifting base level, in which the locus of deposition of various sediment types may be anticipated. This attribute is rapidly promoting sequence stratigraphy as an indispensable tool for prediction of facies in exploration and production geology. In hydrocarbon exploration the application of sequence stratigraphy has ranged from anticipating reservoir- and source-rock distribution to predicting carbonate diagenesis, porosity and permeability. The capability to anticipate vertical and lateral distribution of facies and reservoir sands in the basinal, shoreface, incised valley-fill and regressive settings alone has been a great asset for exploration. In frontier areas, where data are often limited to seismic lines, sequence-stratigraphic methodology has helped determine the timing and of types of unconformities and anticipate transgressive- and regressive-prone intervals. In production it is aiding in field development by providing improved source and seal predictions for secondary oil recovery. A recognition of stratigraphic causes of poor recovery through improved understanding of internal stratal architecture can lead to new well recompletions and enhanced exploitation in existing fields. The sequence-stratigraphic discipline is in a state of rapid expansion.

This volume grew out of two SEPM-sponsored events, an SEPM Research Conference that took place in Casper, Wyoming, in 2002 and an SEPM Research Symposium that was held at the AAPG/SEPM Annual Meeting in 2003. Several other papers have been added to broaden the range of examples presented. The theme of the volume, "Incised Valleys in Time and Space", has been chosen because of the comparison of valleys of different ages and in different settings is a valuable approach to understanding the role of the many factors that interact to create the valley and to emplace the subsequent valley-filling deposits. Each example, whether modern or ancient, represents a real-world experiment that lacks the temporal and spatial scaling issues that inhibit the application of laboratory experiments. Of course, the dependent and independent variables cannot be "controlled" in natural systems, but our ability to deduce the approximate values of these quantities (e.g., subsidence, sediment supply, climate) is increasing continually, such that semiquantitative and even quantitative estimates can be made in some cases. Almost all of the papers in the volume discuss more than a single incised valley, comparing two or more contemporaneous valleys, or valleys of different ages in the same geographic area. Such comparisons bring similarities and differences into sharper focus than any collection of individual case studies could, and highlight the relative importance of the many factors that influence the resulting sedimentary succession.

In recent years there has been a virtual explosion of stratigraphic studies utilizing the principles of sequence stratigraphy. Although the concept of time stratigraphy is not new, the packaging of depositional units into systems tracts and sequences is. This new approach has led to the reassessment of areas that in some cases have been the subject of intense geological scrutiny for decades. The fundamental principles upon which sequence stratigraphy is based are applicable at a broad range of temporal and physical scales. This volume arises from several sessions on sequence stratigraphy held at the Thirteenth International Sedimentological Congress, with emphasis on facies associations within a sequence stratigraphic framework.

The lower Cisco Group records the latest Pennsylvanian episode of progradational siliciclastic and aggradational carbonate deposition on the Eastern Shelf of the Permian Basin. This detailed study documents the spatial distribution of depositional systems in four of the six high-frequency cycles that constitute the lower Cisco Group. A dataset of 4,860 wells in an area about 4,900 mi2 (12,690 km2) is the basis for detailed correlations and subsurface maps for each cycle. Challenges in the definition and construction of a chronostratigraphic framework based on well-logs have been revisited. The use of the allostratigraphic approach proved to be an important tool for the construction of this stratigraphic framework. Three main depositional systems were the focus of this study: shelf-carbonate, HST delta, and incised-valley systems. Moreover, shelf-edge delta systems have been studied in a general way. Regional cross-sections show varied progradational or aggradational styles for contemporaneous depositional systems. Isochore maps enable the delineation of depositional systems. Furthermore, the recognition of four regional sediment pathways is possible from these maps. Multiple incised-valleys record variation in relative sea-level during the Late Pennsylvanian. This study identifies three fifth-order incised-valley systems, delineates their regional extent, and links them spatially to shelf-edge deltas. These incised-valley systems have the generic name of lower Hope sandstone; however, they have different ages and depositional styles. Four cores and seven thin sections enable characterization of the vertical lithologic succession, mineralogy, and diagenetic framework in these systems. This stratigraphic framework documents the locations of several depositional units of the lower Cisco Group on the Eastern Shelf. Their distribution is not uniform and depends on the amount of sediments supplied through the sediment pathways. Knowledge of these complicated patterns may be applied in the extension of under-developed oilfields and identification of new exploration targets.
