Don Anderson's Hotspot Compilation in Google Earth
Don Anderson has posted two spreadsheets of contemporary hotspot locations and properties based on a large number of references on the Mantle Plumes website: The Compleate Hot Spot, web page , accessed September 4, 2007. I have merged and converted the spreadsheets into a Google Earth kmz file: Don Anderson's Hotspot Compilation. Don's tabulated information is concatenated into the description field of the data set. In a couple of cases (Galapagos and Marquesas) I've noted that the posted locations appear to be displaced from what other workers have postulated.
