Recent progress in geophysical modelling of global plate tectonic, mantle convection and seismic wave propagation problems is reviewed, while paying particular attention to novel adjoint methods for the efficient inversion of seismic and tectonic data. Observed is that the continuing growth in high performance and cluster computing promises the crossing of long standing barriers in the simulation of first-order geophysical phenomena.
