　　同时，《大气科学进展》认识到审稿人和编委的义务劳动是期刊出版最珍贵的资源，公正、及时的同行评议确保了文章发表的质量和时效，对科学传播具有重要意义。AAS于2014年购入ScholarOne新开发的产品：Reviewer Locator（审稿人定位）。Reviewer Locator 挖掘SCI数据库的强大资源，通过“指纹”跟踪及一系列复杂算法，能为每篇送审文章建议20—30名潜在审稿人供责编选择，使得AAS的编委不但能比以往更快、更准确地寻找到最合适的审稿人，而且由于推荐的审稿人研究领域相关性高，审稿人感兴趣并同意审稿的几率加大，有效缩短了审稿周期。
　　《大气科学进展》编辑部决定对2014年度优秀审稿人进行表彰。通过编委推荐、编辑部数据统计以及主编审核，评选出年度优秀审稿人（Editor’s Award）如下：
