\huge \rm {\underline{Aquifers}}

An aquifer is an underground layer of water-bearing permeable rock. The casing protects aquifers which may contain freshwater. Aquifers are water-bearing geologic formations that can provide usable amounts of water.

\huge \rm {\underline{It's \: Significance}}

An aquifer is a geological formation or part of it, consisting of permeable material capable to store/yield significant quantities of water. Groundwater is (naturally) recharged by rain water and snowmelt or from water that leaks through the bottom of some lakes and rivers.
