Initially, three volumes were published each year during the summer months, then issued as one larger volume per year starting in 1946.

After the formation of the Crater Lake Natural History Association (CLNHA) in 1942, the publication has become a cooperative effort between CLNHA and the National Park Service.
The indices below will allow you to gain access to all issues, by volume number, volume/title, or author. Due to space limitations, these online editions do not contain the original artwork, photography, charts and diagrams which greatly enhanced the hardcopy editions. It should be noted that there were no Nature Notes published between the years 1939-1945 and 1957-1991.
Only a limited number of Nature Notes are printed each year. The most current edition is not posted in its entirety, but will be placed on-line next year.
