    Thank You to Our 2018 Peer Reviewers
    (Wiley, 2019-04) Filippelli, Gabriel; Colwell, Rita; Anenberg, Susan C.; Balbus, John M.; Ceccarelli, Daniela; Hudson-Edwards, Karen; Jutla, Antarpreet; Miao, Chiyuan; Sandifer, Paul A.; Vengosh, Avner; Earth Sciences, School of Science
    Public trust in science, effective science communication, and rapid and constructive response to authors about their submissions are of paramount importance to the scientific enterprise and indeed to society itself. This is really at the heart of peer review—providing thoughtful insights into both the scientific quality and importance of work, and also how it is communicated to other scientists and increasingly to a broader audience. Very few opportunities exist to acknowledge the mostly anonymous process of peer review, especially given the huge increase in review requests and the relatively mechanical nature of online reviewing platforms. We continue to be humbled by the time, effort, and careful insights that our colleagues share with each other through the process of peer review. In 2018, GeoHealth benefited from more than 83 reviews provided by 53 of our peers for papers submitted to the journal. Thank you all for your awesome efforts toward advancing geohealth now and for the future.

    Thank You to Our 2020 Peer Reviewers
    (Wiley, 2020-03) Filippelli, Gabriel; Colwell, Rita R.; Anenberg, Susan; Balbus, John; Ceccarelli, Daniela; Hudson‐Edwards, Karen A.; Jutla, Antarpreet; Miao, Chiyuan; Sandifer, Paul A.; Vengosh, Avner; Earth Sciences, School of Science
    Peer review is at the heart of the scientific endeavor, ensuring that high‐quality discoveries are communicated in effective and impactful ways. As a voluntary and mostly anonymous effort, peer review is often poorly recognized. But it is so valuable to journal Editors, and we are often so impressed by the incredibly detailed, constructive, and informative reviews that we get back from reviewers. In 2019, GeoHealth benefited from more than 94 reviews provided by 73 of our peers for papers submitted to the journal. Thank you all for being such an important part of the scientific process, advancing the communication of discoveries at the intersections of the environmental and health sciences to improve society.
