Sizes and Ages of Seamounts Using Remote Sensing: Implications for Intraplate Volcanism

open access: yes, 1997
Satellite altimetry was used to identify and characterize Pacific intraplate seamounts. The gravimetric amplitudes of seamounts appear to be related to the age difference between the sea floor and seamounts; by inverting this relation, pseudo ages can be

Estimates of the Temperature and Melting Conditions of the Carpathian‐Pannonian Upper Mantle From Volcanism and Seismology

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2020
What drives the formation of basaltic melts beneath intraplate volcanoes not associated with extensive thermal anomalies or lithospheric extension? Detailed constraints on the melting conditions and source region are imperative to resolve this question ...

Melt Production and Volatile Release From Thermochemical Mantle Plumes

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.
Abstract Mantle plumes are thought to generate Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs), the largest outpourings of lava in the geologic record, which are associated with long‐lasting climatic warming events and mass extinctions. However, the controls on mantle degassing by plumes remain poorly constrained.

Shallow Poroelastic Hydrothermal Deformation at Changbaishan Volcano Before the 2020 Unrest Revealed by Sentinel‐1 InSAR Time Series

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 19, 16 October 2026.
Abstract Ground deformation of dormant volcanoes provides critical insights into subsurface processes and potential hazards. Here we present Sentinel‐1 Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) time series (2015–2020) for Changbaishan volcano, the largest intraplate volcanic system in East Asia. We detect persistent subsidence of up to 3.5 mm/yr

The depth geodynamic state and its correlation with the surface geological and geophysical parameters along the sublatitudinal profile of Eurasia

open access: yesГеодинамика и тектонофизика, 2019
A cross‐sections of longitudinal (P) and transverse (S) wave anomalies (attribute δ(VP/VS)) is constructed along the sublatitudinal profile from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean across the regions of the latest Eurasian volcanism. It is correlated

Volcanology of tuff rings at Kellyville, Onewhero and Bombay, South Auckland Volcanic Field [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The South Auckland volcanic field hosts 82 volcanic centres over an area of approximately 300 km2 in the Pukekohe, Bombay, Tuakau, Pukekawa and Onewhero regions. The intraplate, monogenetic basaltic volcanic field was active between 1.59 and 0.51 Ma, and

Physical characteristics of kimberlite and basaltic intraplate volcanism and implications of a biased kimberlite record [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We assess bias in the record of kimberlite volcanism by using newly acquired size data on more than 900 kimberlite bodies from 12 kimberlite fields eroded to depths of between 0 m and >1200 m, and by a comparison with intraplate monogenetic basaltic ...

From primitive to mature intraplate volcanism: geochemical evolution of the Cenozoic harrats in Western Saudi Arabia

open access: yes, 2022
The extensive and well-preserved lava fields, “harrats” in Arabic, of western Saudi Arabia stretch for 3000 km south to north and cover an area of more than 120.000 km2 in total. The alkalic volcanism initiated at ca.

Intraplate volcanism off South Greenland: Caused by glacial rebound?

open access: yes, 2012
Plate tectonic mechanisms explain most of the dominant types of volcanism. Intraplate volcanism has been attributed to hot spots associated with mantle plumes, though alternative explanations have been proposed for settings not fed by plumes.

Geodynamic Significance of Intraplate Basaltic Magmatism From the Western Mediterranean Region

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 10, October 2026.
Abstract Dynamic topography changes as mantle convection evolves, making its past surface expression difficult to reconstruct. Widespread Neogene‐Quaternary intraplate basaltic magmatism across the Western Mediterranean Region allows us to test whether dated basalts preserve the mantle thermal structure responsible for regional dynamic support.
