Mathematical models have advancement to a point where they are considered to be an effective\ntool for simulating natural phenomena in coastal regions. This paper discusses the development of\nBay of Bengal Model (BoBM), updating of the model with the recent bathymetry and shore line of\nislands and coastline and upgrading from rectangular grid to finer size of mesh grids by using latest\nversion of MIKE21 FM modeling system. This model is very useful for the hydrodynamic study\nin the coastal region of Bangladesh. The article also presents the model set-up, boundary conditions\nand few calibration results of the model. The model applications clearly show the variation\nof the flow structure, their speed and direction separately for monsoon and dry season around the\nmodel area which covers the northern part of Bay of Bengal.
