The website www.mantleplumes.org focuses on the debate about whether plumes exist or not, and what other mechanisms could cause melting anomalies inside Earth. MantlePlumes.org was born in March 2003 following a series of observations conflicting with the plume hypothesis, or unexpectedly failing to confirm it.
