SAGA.ta_morphometry.26: Upslope and Downslope Curvature

This tool first calculates the local curvature of a cell as sum of the gradients (i.e. tangens of slope) to its neighbour cells. This is a simple estimation of the general curvature and is strongly correlated with general curvatures calculated with other methods (e.g. Zevenbergen & Thorne 1987). Then upslope curvature is calculated as the distance and flow proportional weighted average local curvature over a cell's upslope contributing area following the multiple flow direction algorithm after Freeman (1991). In a similar way the downslope curvature is calculated by summarizing the curvatures of all hydrologically downslope connected cells. The local upslope/downslope curvatures just take the immediately neighboured cells into account.
