Ascending (6)

Ross

I think it could be either:

rising

upward

'ascending' is the definition.
('rise' can be a synonym of 'ascend')

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for rising that I've seen before include "Moving upward" , "Revolting act" , "A revolt; getting up" , "Ascension" , "Upwardly mobile" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, the Evening Standard, The Sun, the Irish Times (Simplex), The Times and The Telegraph.
