Rounding Ridges      
Rounding ridges removes elevations that are higher than a parabolic curve that is defined by the upper and lower spreads of the ridge and a percentage drop in the elevation of the ridge. The sharp ridgeline is removed resulting in shapes that look more like rolling/rounded hills. The original elevation can be kept by using an option to rescale the ridge back to its original elevation.
