Samoan hot spot track on a "hot spot highway": Implications for mantle plumes and a deep Samoan mantle source

Samoan hot spot track on a "hot spot highway": Implications for mantle plumes and a deep Samoan mantle source

We report new geochemical data for submarine lavas from the Samoan region that greatly enhance the geochemical data set for volcanoes from the hot spot. Additionally, two volcanoes dredged in the northern Lau Basin, Futuna Island and Manatu seamount, are young (
