We calculate the thermal and thermoelectric transport coefficients for a two-dimensional spin-density-wave metal in the presence of weak disorder and under an external magnetic field using the Mori-Zwanzig memory matrix formalism. As a consequence, we obtain that although the Seebeck coefficient S displays a relatively conventional linear dependence on the temperature of the system, the Nernst coefficient ν exhibits a clear signature of bad-metallicity within the so-called strange metal regime described by the model. This result agrees qualitatively with experimental transport data obtained for many cuprate superconductors around optimal doping.
