Diminishing gradually (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tapering

(Other definitions for tapering that I've seen before include "getting less and less" , "Becoming gradually narrower like some candles (8)" , "thinning out" , "Narrowing to a point" , "Becoming less" .)

I've seen this clue in The Star Tribune.
