Scientists wondered how volcanoes could be located so far from tectonic plate boundaries until one proposed the idea of Response area, where the magma is much hotter than the surrounding magma. These are Response area and do not move with tectonic plates. They are responsible for the creation of Response area island chains.

Scientists wondered how volcanoes could be located so far from tectonic plate boundaries until one proposed the idea of hotspots, where the magma is much hotter than the surrounding magma. These are mantle plumes and do not move with tectonic plates. They are responsible for the creation of volcanic island chains.
