A spring is a place where water naturally flows out of the ground. This comes from the German word 'springer,' which means 'to leap from the ground.'The first type of spring is a gravity spring. This is just what it sounds like - these form from the pull of gravity. The water gets pulled down through the ground until it reaches a layer it can't penetrate. Because it has nowhere else to go, it starts flowing horizontally until it reaches an opening and water comes out as a spring. These are usually found along hillsides and cliffs. next type of spring is a seepage spring, which as you may have guessed, is groundwater seeping out at the surface. Next, we have artesian springs, which come from pressure in confined aquifers forcing the water to the surface. fourth type of spring is a tubular spring. These springs occur in underground cave systems, which resemble underground highways Finally, we have fissure springs. Fissures are just large cracks, so you can probably figure out that fissure springs occur along large cracks in the ground, like fault lines.
