State of stagnation (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

doldrums

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">state of stagnation</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this before)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for doldrums that I've seen before include "dumps" , "Depressed state of mind" , "Depressed state - area around the Equator" , "equatorial area" , "Belt of light winds near the equator" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Times.
