In the piedmont of uplifting mountains, alluvial fan rivers undergo significant aggradation-degradation processes, which are usually attributed to climate change. An ongoing debate is whether this process requests the participation of glaciation. To address this debate, we need the knowledge of the quantitative relationship between the ratio of water to sediment flux (qw/qs) with the aggradation/degradation process. This study examined the aggradation and degradation processes in three alluvial rivers at the piedmont of the Qilian Shan (Shan referes to Mountain) and simulated the river processes by a one-dimensional numerical model based on the transport-limited principle. Along the studied piedmont rivers, field measurements show a magnitude of 120–200 m degradation and aggradation in the Late Pleistocene. Through simulation analysis, we explored how factors like the ratio of water to sediment flux (qw/qs), channel width, and sediment grain size influence river processes and longitudinal profiles, and found distinct morphologies in different processes, where aggradation is characterized by concave-up profiles, while degradation is characterized by convex-down profiles. Additionally, the water flux is inversely proportional to the time required for the river to reach a new equilibrium profile. The simulated degradation amplitude aligns closely with the measured data in the Qilian Shan, indicating that precipitation during the Last Glacial Maximum in the region amounted to approximately ∼32% of the Holocene precipitation. This supports the notion that changes in water flux or precipitation alone can induce significant piedmont deepening without the necessity of glaciation. •Built a model to quantify the link between water-sediment fluxes and river processes.•Simulated Qilian Shan piedmont river incision: ∼32% LGM precipitation vs. Holocene.•Precipitation alone can create deep canyons without requiring glaciation.
