Each
year, the Amber Waves Editorial Board and an external
committee of distinguished judges select the best articles—features,
findings, data feature, and indicator item—of the year.
The 2004 honorees received their awards at a ceremony in April,
along with the winners of the inaugural Helios Awards (see
Amber Waves, June 2005,
Volume 3, Issue 3). ERS congratulates the winners and
the many other ERS staffers who supported these award-winning
articles.
