Many hot-spots are found in "the ring of fire" which surrounds the Pacific Ocean.
Heat in the Earth's mantle is a driving force behind hotspots and geysers. Hotspots are areas where magma plumes rise from the mantle, creating volcanic activity at the surface. Geysers are hot springs that erupt periodic jets of water and steam due to the heating of groundwater by magma and heat from the mantle. Both hotspots and geysers stem from the heat within the Earth's mantle that affects the surface geology.
Most intraplate volcanic activity occurs along tectonic plate boundaries, such as hotspots or rift zones, rather than within the interior of a tectonic plate.
Yes, stratovolcanoes can form on hotspots. Hotspots are areas where magma from deep within the Earth rises to the surface, creating volcanic activity. Stratovolcanoes are typically formed by layers of hardened lava, ash, and other volcanic debris accumulating over time.
Geothermal energy is the use of the Earth's heat to turn water to steam, which turns a turbine.
Mantle plumes - areas of unusually hot rock that can punch through the Earth's crust to create volcanoes like the Hawaiian island. Not only do they form land, which humans can live on, they create hazards like volcanoes (Hawaii itself is a volcano) and even super volcanoes such as Yellowstone, which allegedly has the potential to wipe out large areas of life on the globe. The affects of hotspots are all of those associated with volcanic activity without the fault-line processes linked with tsunamis and earthquakes.

Where ever there are hotspots
PC 'hotspots' - usually refers to the WiFi network. There are thousands of WiFi connections around the country (UK), located in public buildings such as libraries, government offices, shopping centres and businesses - which offer free access to the internet. All you need is a computer with WiFi capabilities - and be in range of one of the 'hotspots'
Africa has the most hotspots, with over 100 active volcanoes. The African continent is known for its geothermal activity and volcanic eruptions, making it one of the most seismically active regions in the world.
8 biodiversity hotspots are found in africa
I travel a lot and you can connect to loads of hotspots, not just boingo hotspots but other operators hotspots across the world. I would recommend
Get some bitter apple spray. You can find it a most pet stores
Tectonic plates that are located above mantle plumes are called hotspots. These hotspots are areas of volcanic activity that can create volcanic islands or seamounts as the tectonic plate moves over the stationary plume.
