Natural underground reserves of fresh water are generally called aquifers.
Aquifers are important, because they produce fresh water from the salty sea water so humans have more water since about 75% of the earth is water and more than half that is salt water and most fresh water is trapped in glaciers or ice caps, which only leaves us humans 1% of fresh water to drink.
By 2% it means 2% of the entire earth's water is fresh water and the rest is salt water, mineral water, etc. the two percent are the lakes, streams, rivers, aquifers, and yes, groundwater- any source of fresh water on the earth...it makes me suddenly feel thirsty
