Much of Earth's water is thought to have come from asteroids impacting the planet early in its history. Image via NASA/Don Davis. The surface of the very young Earth was initially an ocean of magma. Hydrogen and noble gases from the solar nebula were drawn to the planetary embryo, forming the first atmosphere.
Answer:
Over the Ocean

Tropical storms usually form on water, so Florida and tornadoes are ruled out. The only option left is over the ocean, which is the correct answer.
The conclusion is that the pillar corals are heavily dependent on the sunlight in order to survive and flourish.
In warm waters, other organisms compete with them, and the pillar corals are out-competed, so the sunlight is blocked, partially, or totally, so they are not able to function.
Because they are not able to function, the pillar corals are dying out, thus living space for other organisms to take their niche in the ecosystem.
