n recognition of the contribution that reviewers provide to the scientific community and the publication of scholarly research, Environmental Science & Technology Editor, Jerald L. Schnoor, and the associate editors of the journal are proud to recognize the following reviewers for their significant contributions to the journal over the past year. A journal exists on the goodwill and expertise of its reviewer corps. Our editors rely on high-quality, constructive, and timely reviews from the more than 5000 reviewers in our database to ensure the excellence of papers that appear in ES&T. We realize that reviewing is a time-consuming job with no tangible reward. In recognition of this, and in order to express our gratitude to some of our best reviewers, ES&T established an annual “Excellence in Review” award in 2003 and added a “Super Reviewer Award” in 2011. We salute all of the individuals below for consistently providing both scholarly and timely reviews.
