Figure 2. Distribution of Phanerozic LIPs on Earth. Transient LIPs are indicated in yellow (continental) and orange (oceanic) with peak eruption ages. Persistent LIPs are mostly in red. Map modified from base map by A. Goodlife and F. Martinez in Mahoney and Coffin (1997). The peak eruption ages of each LIP are from the compiled references within Courtillot and Renne (2003) and Taylor (2006).
