YING-TSONG LIN is an Acting Professor at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO), UC San Diego. His research focuses on applied ocean sciences, autonomous ocean platforms, internal waves, ocean acoustics, and instrumentation. He leads projects like the New England Shelf Break Acoustics (NESBA) experiment, emphasizing real-time acoustic modeling and environmental interactions. Research interests include 3D acoustic propagation modeling, ocean mixing dynamics, and seabed characterization. His work integrates high-performance computing and distributed sensor networks for oceanographic studies. Recent studies address underwater explosions, renewable energy impacts, and vessel localization using acoustic coherence. Publications emphasize advancements in hydroacoustic modeling, seabed inversion techniques, and environmental asymmetry effects. His contributions span interdisciplinary areas like bioacoustics and seismic-to-acoustic wave conversions. Labs/Teams: Involved with SIO's Acoustics and Oceanography research groups, focusing on autonomous platforms and global observing systems.
