For those 26 countries that reported a medium, high or very high willingness to develop policies and to take adaptation actions at the national level, important triggers for adaptation selected were the same – extreme weather events (selected by all but one), EU policies (selected by 16 countries), damage costs (selected by 14 countries) and scientific research (selected by 14 countries). The selected drivers suggest that an important trigger for adaptation is responding to extreme weather events and damage costs, and in response to EU policies. Scientific research is an important trigger, but selected less often than those previously mentioned.
