The upstream-driven theory for inception of channelization developed by Izumi and Parker [1, 2] for a flow on a flat bed is here extended to the case of a non flat bed. Following the Izumi and Parker theory, the depth-averaged St. Venant equations for shallow water are integrated using a linear perturbative analysis in order to obtain the variation of the finite wavelength corresponding to the distance separation between incipient basins on bed curvature. The threshold concept for bed erosion [3] is used with the aim of associating the excedance of the critical shear stress to the channel head locations. The analysis shows that even for small values of the bed curvature there is a great change in the value of the characteristic wavelength with respect to the flat bed. In particular, an upward concave bed causes an increase of the characteristic wavelength that seems to better match real values [4, 5].
