Explanation:
Aquifers are porous and permeable formations that stores ground water. The ground water system is made up of mostly fresh water.
- An aquifer acts as a reserve for ground water in the environment.
- By passing through different formations, water that recharges them are purified.
- This makes them fresh and mostly free from salt intrusion
An aquifer is able to store this fresh water and it is is good prospect for sourcing ground water.
