Lin Mu is a professor and doctoral supervisor of College of Life Sciences and Oceanography, Shenzhen University. He was born in 1977, received Ph.D. degree from Ocean University of China and majored in physical oceanography. Dr. Mu has been devoted to the research fields of informational maritime safety support and applied oceanography, and has obtained significant achievements in recent years. He has published 3 monographs and over 50 research papers, 20 of which are covered by Science Citation Index. As the chief scientist, he has been presiding important projects such as National Key Research and Development Program of China, National Natural Science Foundation Project of China and National Science and Technology Support Program of China. In the field of informational maritime safety support, Prof. Mu is specialized in marine oil-spill pollution warning and firstly developed a prediction and warning system of marine oil-spill, search and rescue integration in China, which has been used successfully in a series of accident issues. As an expert in marine search and rescue techniques, he studied, predicted and analyzed the drifting trajectory of the debris of Flight MH370, which provided technical support for related emergency responses. In the field of applied oceanography, Prof. Mu proposed a real-time tidal level prediction system based on statistics and dynamic model by coupling the real-time monitoring data of meteorology and tidal level, statistical prediction method of tide, atmospheric and marine dynamics model, which conquered the drawbacks of traditional models and brought clear economic benefits.
