    Very neat! Interesting to consider the rupture of pollens through “osmotic shock” and lightning. I wonder if these can make up significant populations of accumulation mode particles. Single particle fluorescence should be able to answer that. And, even if numbers are low, might they be efficient cloud nuclei?
