Dear Colleagues,

As Editor-in-Chief of Forests, I am pleased to announce our 2019 Outstanding Reviewer Awards. 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.

Four reviewers have been selected based on the timeliness, quality, and speed of their review reports:

• Dr. Ram P. Sharma, Faculty of Forestry and Wood Sciences, Czech University of Life Sciences Prague, Prague-6, Suchdol, Czech Republic.
• Dr. Maurizio Marchi, CREA, Research Centre for Forestry and Wood, Viale Santa Margherita 80, I-52100 Arezzo, Italy
• Dr. Miguel Montoro Girona, Département des Sciences Fondamentales, Université du Québec à Chicoutimi, 555 boul de l’Université, Chicoutimi, QC G7H 2B1, Canada
• Dr. Oscar Alfranca, Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Edicifi D4 (ESAB), Esteve Terrades, 8 08860 Castelldefels, Spain

Each of them will be granted 500 CHF and receive a waiver of the publication fee for one paper.

We thank them for their efforts in the review process. We would also like to express our sincere gratitude to all reviewers for their time and dedication in 2019.
