If the land loss was strictly because of storm surge and hurricane winds, the subsidence should have stopped after the last hurricane (Ike) impacted the area, I can promise you it didn't stop then. The amount of land loss I've watched back there year of year without the influence of hurricanes is shocking and depressing.
