English term or phrase: mantle plume
Definition from Digital Atlas of Idaho:
A buoyant mass of hot mantle material that rises to the base of the lithosphere. Mantle plumes commonly produce volcanic activity and structural deformation in the central part of lithospheric plates.

Example sentence(s):
  • Scientists believe mantle plumes can last hundreds of millions of years, and that their heat can create phenomena such as Yellowstone National Park or the string of Hawaiian Islands. Science Centric
  • Above a certain depth, the head of the plume begins to melt and spread out under the crust, until it finds a crack and pours through. The theory of mantle plumes predicts an initial flood of lava lasting tens of millions of years, which means that each hot spot should have an associated flood basalt. University of California
  • The first few million years of a newly arrived mantle plume seem to be the most fertile in terms of magma production and flood basalts are therefore formed in a very short period of geological time. The Geological Society

ستون گوشته‌ای یا ستون جُبه‌ای


Definition from fa.wikipedia:
ستون گوشته‌ای یا ستون جُبه‌ای (انگلیسی: Mantle plume)
ستون یا توده‌ای فرضی از سنگ‌های بسیار داغ موجود در گوشته (جبه) زمین است که تا سطح زمین بالا آمده باشد. ستون‌های گوشته‌ای عامل ثانویه اتلاف حرارت از زمین به‌شمار می‌آیند.

Example sentence(s):
  • در سست‌کره، سنگ‌های گوشته به صورت شعاعی پخش شده و در جهت‌های مختلف بصورت افقی حرکت می‌کنند. در عین حال یک حرکت خیلی آرام پایین‌رونده که در محل گوشته پخش است موادی را که توسط ستون‌ها بالا رفته‌اند جایگزین می‌نماید. هیچ مشاهده مستقیمی دال بر موجودیت ستون‌های گوشته‌ای وجود ندارد اما نقاط خاصی در لیتوسفر وجود دارند که می‌توان آن‌ها را به‌وجود ستون گوشته‌ای نسبت داد. - fa.wikipedia
