TALUDES DESLIZADOS

Spanish to English Science Geology LANDSLIDES
The mass movements triggered by the 2017 event can be described by a statistical analysis supported by the landslide inventory. The statistical analysis is expressed as the ratio between the area of a single movement Ai over the total movement area ΣAi. Figure 8 (a - c) presents the area-ratio histogram of movement types, mobilized volume, and vegetation cover COMO FUNCIÓN DE LA PENDIENTE PROMEDIO DE LOS TALUDES DESLIZADOS, respectively
Proposed translations (English)

Been there I have a couple of geologist/geographer clients and they sometimes send me texts which are half English half Spanish. They have to read and write a lot in English for their work, so they usually try to do it themselves, but often they run out of steam halfway through a sentence or paragraph, so this is what you get.

failed slopes

Hard to be very sure with so little context, but I think this must be right.
Histograms of movement types, mobilized volume, and vegetation cover as a function of the average gradient (slope) of the slopes that have failed; i.e., on which landslides have occurred.
