-# Welcome to the CABLE Land Surface Model documentation
+# The Community Atmosphere Biosphere Land Exchange model (CABLE) documentation
 
-This site is generated from a [GitHub repository][repo]
-which consists of documentation in markdown files contained in the `documentation/docs` sub-directory, which are rendered using [mkdocs] and [material]. 
+CABLE is a land surface model, used to calculate the fluxes of momentum, energy, water and carbon between the land surface and the atmosphere and to model the major biogeochemical cycles of the land ecosystem.
 
-There is also full [API documentation][API], which is automatically generated by [FORD] from the CABLE source code contained in the `src` directory. 
+CABLE can be run as a standalone model, driven by prescribed meteorology. CABLE can be run for a single location, a region or globally. CABLE can also be used as part of an atmospheric model. CABLE provides the land surface component of ACCESS-CM2 and ACCESS-ESM1.5.
