Rise in temperature believable (5)

I believe the answer is:

rebel

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

'in temperature believable' is the wordplay.
'in' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'REBEL' can be found hidden inside 'temperature believable'.

(Other definitions for rebel that I've seen before include "Resist authority" , "One resisting authority" , "Rise in armed opposition" , "Insurrectionist" , "One who rises up" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
