If research has in fact just discovered this, then we need new researchers!

Rain is collected mainly from the ocean through evaporation, its when the sun causes water to rise in vapor, and it cause clouds, but it goes through a distilling process where it turn to fresh water and the salts get left behind, only the water molecules rise out of the ocean, and evaporate from the oceans, and it all pure as it rises and forms clouds, then as the rain falls ie precipitation, which means to fall to the ground, on its way it can collect pollutants from the air, such dust or sulphur dioxide and nitrogen oxides as well exhaust fumes, or particulate matter. A lot of these pollution gases can rise higher than the rain clouds but also do eventually come back down my natural resources. How ever rain water does contains natural nitrates and ammonium in rain nutrients that plant life can absorb, that act as an essential fertilizer, for plant life to aid photosynthesis to convert water light and carbon dioxide into glucose which is a type of single sugar, , but most other nutrients are absorbed through the soil.

All Rain water can be considered slightly acidic when naturally occuring compounds dissolve in it from the atmosphere such as carbon dioxide , which always happens, but in some areas of the world it's more acidic. It's known to cause corrosion over time. For everywhere but more so on other areas.
