The study of wind and wave fields during severe cyclonic storm, Nargis (2008) at the Bay of Bengal, is conducted by using WRF-SWAN numerical model in a top-down structure. The model results are validated against meteorological data from Joint Typhoon Warning Centre (JTWC) and Indian Meteorological Department (IMD) for weather simulation and WaveWatch 3 operational model data provided by NOAA for wave simulation, respectively. Thereafter, a detailed discussion of wave figure at Myanmar coast (Ayeyarwady delta coast) is performed as well.
