Short summary
We present tools to assess shifts in the distributional properties of continuous environmental variables and to identify potentially anomalous years. We demonstrate the utility of these tools using stream temperature as an illustrative example. We were able to examine seasonal and annual responses to climate and other human-related influences. These tools will be useful to characterize how regimes of continuous phenomena have changed in the past, or may respond in the future.
