32 degrees North and 18 degrees West It's not 18 degrees West it's 18 degrees East....... There's a huge difference... It's on the other side of the world.

What are the coordinates for the canary Island hot spot?
Latitude/Longitude 28° 06'N, 15° 24'W
What are the five Hot Spots on the Earth?
There are more than just five hot spots throughout the whole Earth. There is the Tasman hot spot, the Hawaii hot spot, the Galapagos hot spot, the Yellowstone hot spot, Easter Island hot spot, Bouvet hot spot, St. Helena hot spot, the Canary Islands hot spot, and then Iceland hot spot.
What are the coordinates of the Hawaii hot spot?
There are not exact coordinates as the hot spot covers a large area. However, it appears to be centered under the eastern part of the Big Island, so a decent approximation would be 19.3° N 155.3° W
Which of the hawaiian islands is the oldest- the island directly over the hot spot or the island that is farhest from the hot spot?
The Hawaiian island that is directly over the hot spot is the oldest. As the Pacific Plate moves westward over the stationary hot spot, new volcanoes form, creating a chain of islands with the oldest island being the one that was formed first over the hot spot.
Does Hawaii have the only hot spot?
No. There are many hotspots on Earth. To list a few, there are hot spots located under the Galapagos Islands, north central Arizona, Yellowstone, the Canary Islands, the Azores, and Ross Island in Antarctica.
What is the name of the Hot spot in the middle of the Pacific plate?
The hot spot in the middle of the Pacific plate is called the Hawaiian hot spot. It is responsible for the formation of the Hawaiian Islands, with the youngest island being the Big Island of Hawaii.
How did a hot spot creates the hawaiin islands?
a hot spot created the hawaiin islands because the hot spot exploted out a volcano then hit the ground dried and became the island
How does an island chain form over geologic hot spot?
A Hot spot is stationary in time and burns though the solid lithosphere creating an island through volcanic eruptions. The lithosphere is separated into plates that move around so if a hot spot occurs under an oceanic plate it forms a island and as the plate moves (and the hot spot does not) it forms a chain of islands (as the plate moves over the hot spot). This is how the Hawaiian chain is formed.
What kind of mountains form from hot spots?
Hot spot volcanos. As these age they can become island chains and eventually subsurface seamount arcs if the hot spot is in the ocean.
What type of plate boundary is Easter Island located on?
Easter Island is located on a hot spot, which is not a plate boundary. The hot spot has created a chain of volcanic islands, with Easter Island being one of them.
Canary Islands Hot Spot?
The Canary hotspot is an area located just off of the northwestern coast of Africa within the Canary Islands. This is made up of a volcanic hotspot that has an underlying mantle plume that is considered to be quite deep under the earthâ??s surface.
What chain of islands are formed because of a hot spot?
A Hot spot is stationary in time and burns though the solid lithosphere creating an island through volcanic eruptions. The lithosphere is separated into plates that move around so if a hot spot occurs under an oceanic plate it forms a island and as the plate moves (and the hot spot does not) it forms a chain of islands (as the plate moves over the hot spot). This is how the Hawaiian chain is formed.
