Dear Colleagues,
As Editor-in-Chief of Forests, I am pleased to announce the 2020 Outstanding Reviewer Award of Forests. Careful and timely peer reviews are the foundation of all successful journals. We are pleased to be able to recognize a few outstanding reviewers and offer them a nominal cash award for their exemplary service to Forests and, in turn, to the broader scientific community.

Each of them will receive the following:
- 500 CHF (Swiss Francs);
- Opportunities to publish papers (no quantity limit) with 50% discount in 2021;
- A certificate.
We thank them for their efforts in the review process. In addition, we would like to express our sincere gratitude to all the reviewers for their time and dedication in 2020.
