This study investigates the geological features of the Cape Verde hotspot to understand volcanic activity and uplift processes. By dating geological formations, it aims to shed light on the dynamics of hotspot development and its implications for geological theories.
Hotspots are enigmatic structures on Earth's surface that are not explained in the framework of plate tectonics.
One of the characteristic features of oceanic hotspots is anomalously shallow seafloor, or hotspot swell, on which the volcanic islands associated with hotspots rest.
The study of isostatic movements of oceanic volcanoes is a key discriminant among different theories of hotspot swell development.
The Cape Verde islands, a hotspot archipelago located in a stationary plate environment,…
