Presentation transcript:

Origin of the La Réunion Volcanism La Réunion Island is the latest manifestation of the mantle plume that generated the Deccan Traps Comparing with the Hawaii plume: significantly weaker magma production rate significantly slower plate motion (~1cm/year) slightly younger oceanic lithosphere
