Aseismic Ridges. 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).
