What allows precipitation to slowly pass through and form groundwater reserves?

Porous and permeable materials like sand, gravel, and fractured rocks allow precipitation to slowly pass through and form groundwater reserves. As water percolates through these materials, it gets stored in underground reservoirs called aquifers. The amount of precipitation and the properties of the ground material influence the rate and amount of groundwater recharge.
