<Francis Nimmo> coauthored models connecting the <Moon>'s <thermal structure> with its tidal and seismic energy dissipation. Melt-free models matched several amplitudes but predicted the wrong sign for the measured tidal frequency dependence.<Dissipation at tidal and seismic frequencies in a melt-free Moon by Francis Nimmo and others>[Abstract: successful constraints and remaining frequency-dependence discrepancy]{ref}
The discrepancy makes frequency dependence an additional test beyond fitting one observed response.
