    Wells tap into underground water sources called aquifers, allowing groundwater to be accessed at the surface. Springs occur when an aquifer reaches the land surface, causing water to flow out naturally. Geysers involve hot underground water that builds up steam pressure until erupting high into the air in periodic bursts, and are commonly found in volcanic regions like Yellowstone National Park.
