Announcement: Remote Sensing 2017 Best Guest Editor Award

Guest Editors help invite many high-quality papers for Remote Sensing. To acknowledge and encourage the generous work and precious time of the guest editor team of Special Issues in Remote Sensing, we launched the Best Guest Editor Award last year for Special Issues closed from 1 June 2016 to 31 June 2017. In total, 40 Special Issues were closed from 1 June 2016 to 31 June 2017 and these Special Issues contributed 607 papers, with an average of 15 papers per Special Issue. A particular highlight was the Special Issue titled “Earth Observations for Geohazards” [1] edited by Prof. Zhenhong Li and Prof. Roberto Tomas. This Special Issue covered innovative Earth Observations methods and applications for monitoring and modeling geohazards. There were 44 papers [2–45] published in it. All of the publications in this Special Issue were cited and they contributed a total of 203 citations for the journal by the end of 2017. The paper focused on imaging land subsidence induced by groundwater extraction using radar interferometry [2] was highly cited, with 16 citations by the end of 2017. We are greatly excited to announce the winners: Prof. Dr. Zhenhong Li (Newcastle University, UK) and Prof. Roberto Tomas (University of Alicante, Spain) (Figure 1).
