Recent studies indicate that mantle plumes, which transfer material and heat from the earth's interior to its surface, represent multifaceted upwellings. The Tristan-Gough hotspot track …
Volcanism far from plate boundaries is often attributed to an underlying mantle plume,,,,,. However, enigmatic observations of Hawaiian volcanism, such as variations in the volume of …
The numerous chemical and isotopic studies of oceanic basalts have shaped our perception of mantle geochemistry over the last six decades. As partial melts of Earth's mantle, basalts …

Abstract “Volcanic field” is a term commonly used to loosely describe a group of volcanoes. Often, it is implicitly assumed that the volcanoes on a volcanic field are small, monogenetic …

A thorough understanding of the internal structure of the Hawaiian plume conduit requires to link geochemical observations of surface lavas to fluid dynamic simulations able to quantify …
Long-lived spatial geochemical zonation of the Tristan-Gough and Discovery hotspot tracks and temporal variations from EMI-type basement to HIMU-type late-stage volcanism at the …
Fundamentally contradictory interpretations of the isotopic compositions of Hawaiian basalts persist, even among authors who agree that the Hawaiian hotspot is caused by a deep …
It has been proposed that the spatial variations recorded in the geochemistry of hotspot lavas, such as the bilateral asymmetry recorded at Hawaii, can be directly mapped as the …

The distinct isotopic compositions of basalts from the two parallel tracks of Hawaiian volcanoes suggest a bilateral zonation of the underlying mantle plume, with an enriched …
