Pampas is a district located in the central Peruvian Andes; and the present contribution estimates the air quality during November and December 2023 in the district of Ahuaycha located in the department of Huancavelica - Peru. To estimate the air quality, the MINAM methodology is used for particles in fine and coarse mode. Where the results obtained were that the air quality for the months of November to December 2023 is Good; the opposite occurs on the days of November 13 and December 31, which are classified as moderate. Therefore, it is concluded that the vehicle fleet, like the festivities, can increase the concentration of particulate matter; and therefore it would be harmful to people's health, since over time it can cause different types of diseases when exposed to this air quality.
