Compressible Equations Mass Continuity Inquiry (CM1 V20.3)

Hi, I have been running quite a few runs using the (1) fully-compressible equations, (2) using horizontally uniform interpolated real sounding in CM1 V20.3. (3) BCs are open in x and periodic in y. (4) 1 km horiz res, Nx=500, Ny=100, Nz = 34, Ztop = 20km (have also tried higher z res and model top in other runs).

I noticed that the average vertical profile of w and rho*w are curiously almost always positive, while values lean towards higher positive values. Is this kind of positive bias expected in the compressible case?
