dc.description.abstract	The phase lag by which the Earth's body tide follows the tidal potential is estimated for the principal lunar semi-diurnal tide M2. The estimate results from combining recent tidal solutions from satellite tracking data and from Topex/Poseidon satellite altimeter data. Each data type is sensitive to the body tide lag: gravitationally for the tracking solutions, geometrically for the altimetry. Allowance is made for the lunar atmospheric tide. For the tidal potential Love number k2, we obtain a lag ε of 0.20°±0.05°, implying an effective body tide Q of 280 and body tide energy dissipation of 110±25 GW.
