-This pipeline runs nightly on weekdays and uses one configuration which specifies
-a coarse AMIP running for 1+ years. The pipeline triggers 4 runs using this configuration,
-each on 1 GPU.
-Each run sets its own random seed so the simulations vary slightly, which allows us to more
-robustly test the stability of the simulations. The random seed of each simulation
-is printed so they can be reproduced, and 1 of the 4 runs always uses the same seed.

+This pipeline runs nightly on Monday - Thursday (4x per week), and uses 3 atmospheric
+configurations of interest:
+- diagnostic EDMF
+- prognostic EDMF
+- ED only (no convection)
+All configurations use 0-moment microphysics and bucket land.
+They run for 15 months, 6 months, and 27 months, respectively.
+These simulation lengths are chosen with the goal of each simulation finishing
+within 14 hours of wallclock time, so they can successfully run overnight.
+
+This pipeline uses the main branches of many CliMA packages and its main goal is
 the goal to monitor stability of a coarse AMIP simulation and to catch potential problems
 early. This pipeline is scheduled, but it can also be used to test out configuration changes
 in a smaller test case before running higher resolution global AMIP runs.

 ### ClimaCoupler features
 
+#### Remove coarse nightly CMIP PR[#1485](https://github.com/CliMA/ClimaCoupler.jl/pull/1485)
+To avoid depending on the main branch of too many packages in the nightly pipeline,
+we remove the CMIP nightly run and will only test AMIP nightly.
+
 #### Use JuliaFormatter; remove .dev folder PR[#1484](https://github.com/CliMA/ClimaCoupler.jl/pull/1484)
 Use JuliaFormatter to format the repo, rather than the previous `.dev/juliaformat.jl`.
 The `.dev/` folder is removed, and a documentation page about contributing to
