Let's go back and see what the passagesays.
The fact that smoke carries positively charged smoke particles into the air above a fire suggests the hypothesis that the extra positive strikes occur because of the presence of such particles in the stormclouds.
"Such" before "particles" toward the end of the sentence is a look above marker. So, to correctly understand the meaning of the sentence, we must correctly identify what "such particles" refers to.
Looking back, we see that such particles refers to "positively charged smoke particles." So, the sentence communicates that the hypothesis is that the extra positive strikes occur because of the presence of "POSITIVELY CHARGED smoke particles" in the smoke clouds.
So, what the passage indicates and what you indicated are a little different.
