Editor's Citation for Excellence Awards

For more than 10 years, the peer-reviewed journals published by ASA, CSSA, and SSSA have annually awarded associate editors and peer reviewers for outstanding performance. Each Editorial Board recognizes individuals for excellence in performing their work either as a reviewer or associate editor. The recognition is based on their efforts in establishing a quality review process, for timely and professional manuscript editing, and for overall excellence in managing a professional review process.
