Grateful thanks are extended to Peter R. Vail of Rice University, formerly of Exxon
Production Research Company and AAPG Editor Neil F. Hurley, Colorado School of Mines, for
reviewing this manuscript. Amos Salvador, University of Texas at Austin, coordinator of
the Working Group on Sequence Stratigraphy (WG), and chairman of the International
Subcommission on Stratigraphic Classification (ISS) of the IUGS (International Commission
on Stratigraphy) provided encouragement. G. M. Friedman's remarks are adapted in part from
a response on the receipt of the Sidney Powers Medal.
Episodes, the journal of the International Union of Geological Sciences (IUGS) encourages publications on the history of geology. In 1998, Friedman (Friedman, 1988) published in Episodes a personal perspective on the history of sedimentology and stratigraphy of the 1960s to mid-1980s. This paper concluded with the mid-1980s before sequence stratigraphy revolutionized the study of sedimentary deposits. The present comments involve the era of the 1980s and 1990s, especially after 1985, which was previously omitted in the paper in Episodes.
