A while back, there's been a debate about if Atlantis' shield covered both parts or not.
Evidence showed that it was only half a bubble, just covering the superior half of the city.
Recently, we saw that a cityship is propelled upwards in any condition, with the half bubble acting as a shield.
The shield, is, by the way, always visible when activated.
However, it didn't make much sense to only have the top half of the city protected and not the underneath.
So that's why I think that the upper half of the shield is a dome that maintains and emulates some kind of breathable atmosphere, like an ecosphere but without the vegetation, while the shield is strictly hull hugging underneath, close to the superstructure.
After all, why a shield couldn't be shaped according to two different models?
