Figure 14.1. . Map of relatively well-established hotspots and selected hotspot trails (island chains or aseismic ridges). Hotspots and trails from Crough (1983) with selected more recent hotspots from Anderson and Schramm (2005). Also shown are the geoid anomaly contours of Crough and Jurdy (1980, in meters). Note the preponderance of hotspots in the two major geoid highs (superswells).. Gautam Sen. Flood Basalts & Hot Spot Tracks. “Plume Heads & Tail” Model. Central Atlantic Magmatic Province (CAMP).

They share patterns on chemical variation diagrams which suggests a genetic relationship – beyond the scope of this course. GLY 4310 - Spring, 2019. 2. Alternative Assemblages, Oslo.
