Abstract: The 11th Galileo Conference of the European Geosciences Union (EGU) focused on 'Solid Earth and Geohazards in the Exascale Era.' This abstract presents the main outcomes and conclusions from the conference breakout sessions, which aimed to provide recommendations for the future of solid earth research. The discussions highlighted the challenges and opportunities associated with high-performance computing (HPC) in solid earth sciences. The key findings include the need for collaboration between computer scientists and solid earth domain-specific scientists, the importance of portability software layers for different hardware architectures, the adoption of programming models for easier development and deployment of applications, the necessity of HPC training at all career stages, the improvement of accessibility and authentication mechanisms for European machines, and the readiness of urgent computing services for natural catastrophes. The conference also emphasized the significance of sustainable funding, software engineering best practices, and the development of modular and interoperable codes and workflows. Overall, the conference provided insights into the current status of computational solid earth research and offered recommendations for future advancements in the field.
