"These are structures beneath Earth's crust which give rise to volcanoes". I know what you mean, but this could be read as meaning that hot spots are the only structures "which give rise to volcanoes". Is a tweak to the phraseology possible?
"The Arago hotspot is responsible for the formation of Arago seamount and uplift on Rurutu". Should there be a 'the' in front of the second "Arago"? Should "seamount" have a capital M?
"The upper mantle might be the source of the Arago hotspot, data on the presence of seismic velocity anomalies and their sign beneath Arago are contradictory." IMO this would read better as two sentences.
"additional hotspots in the area are Tubuai, Taukina and Ngatemato" Are these the inactive ones? If so it may be helpful -> 'additional inactive hotspots in the area'.
