53. Aquifers are natural formations that store groundwater, but these vital structures are threatened The word “aquifer” means “water bearer.” In the context of hydrogeology, it refers to a natural underground formation of permeable rock or sediment that stores and conducts the groundwater we access through wells and springs.
