I'd check the trees that fell for insect damage and if there is any, run it by your local extention office. Keep in mind that the damage from insects can be indirect as certain insects can carry fungus that will attack the roots of the trees (I believe that Dutch elm disease was initially spread in this way).

P.S. Has anyone ever studied the effect of continintal drift on mean sea levels? Wouldn't there be places where the sea floor is being uplifted in a way that might explain "rising sea levels"?
