An intraplate volcano (or hotspot volcano) is one that is not located on a plate boundary. The Big Island of Hawaii is one example located within the Pacific Plate. In addition, Yellowstone National Park is located over a continental hotspot in the North American Plate. For a longer discussion of plate boundaries and their respective volcanoes, see the Plate Tectonics section. For more information regarding intraplate volcanoes see Hotspots.
