Description | The Curvature function displays the shape or curvature of the slope. A part of a surface can be concave or convex; you can tell that by looking at the curvature value. The curvature is calculated by computing the second derivative of the surface. The output of the Curvature function can be used to describe the physical characteristics of a drainage basin in an effort to understand erosion and runoff processes. The curvature value can be used to find soil erosion patterns as well as the distribution of water on land. The profile curvature affects the acceleration and deceleration of flow and, therefore, influences erosion and deposition. The planform curvature influences convergence and divergence of flow. |
