Aquifer
An aquifer is an underground layer of rock that holds groundwater. Groundwater is rain or melted snow that has seeped into the ground and is held there. Aquifers are filled slowly. For this reason, aquifers can dry up when people drain them faster than they can be refilled—a process called aquifer depletion. Aquifers can be drained by man-made wells or they can flow out naturally in springs.
