Gradual (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

moderate

'gradual' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for moderate that I've seen before include "Lessen the intensity" , "Become less intense" , "Unextreme" , "Slacken" , "not going to extremes" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press and the King Feature Syndicate.
