Jody Klymak

Jody Klymak is Professor of Ocean Science at the University of Victoria, with joint appointments in Earth & Ocean Sciences and Physics. His research examines energy dissipation mechanisms in oceanic flows, particularly internal wave dynamics and turbulent mixing processes.

Research combines observational and modeling approaches to study:

• Tidal energy conversion at topographic features
• Water mass modification in Arctic throughflows
• Biochemical implications of stratification regimes

Recent publications analyze carbonate system variability (2025) and hypoxia drivers (2025) in Pacific coastal waters.
