We have analysed the significant changes that the landslide caused in the drainage system of the Aguas Blancas and Darro rivers, which in turn are the consequence of the tectonic activity of the north-eastern border of the Granada Basin. These modifications comprise river diversions and active incision within the body of the landslide, making it susceptible to future reactivations. A stability back-analysis of the landslide has been performed to identify the mechanism of failure and the most-likely triggering factors. This analysis shows that a low-to-moderate magnitude earthquake (Mw 5.0–6.5) related to the active faults in the Granada Basin seems to be the main triggering factor of the Dúdar landslide.engbook parthttps://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-31427-8_43https://link.springer.com/restricted access551.435.62(460.357)551.242(460.357)Active tectonicBetic CordilleraDrainage systemDúdarLandslideNewmarkSeismicityGeodinámica2507 Geofísica
