Dies down (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abates

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">dies down</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for abates that I've seen before include "lowers" , "Grows less intense" , "has a fall" , "'Lets up, dies away (6)'" , "Calms down a" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, The New York Times, the Newsday and The Mirror.
