High-quality reviews are a defining feature of JFM, and this initiative is designed to recognise the significant commitment to reviewing by our expert reviewers across the international fluid mechanics community. Their dedicated efforts in providing constructive reviews greatly enhances the quality of all our JFM publications and contributes meaningfully to the advancement of science.

To recognise these contributions by our reviewers, JFM will annually recognise ‘Outstanding Reviewers’. In this inaugural year of the initiative, we are delighted to celebrate our first 50 ‘Outstanding Reviewers’ listed below.  These individuals were selected based on the timeliness and quality of their reviews, input from the Editorial Board, and a final committee selection.

Congratulations to everyone recognised this year, and our sincere thank you to all our reviewers for their invaluable contributions.
