Deep Near-Infrared Surveys --- Understanding Galaxy Evolution at z>1

Abstract

Deep near-infrared (NIR) surveys are critical to our current, and even more to our future, understanding of galaxy evolution in the early universe. In this review I will be discussing the relevance of deep NIR surveys and looking at the information provided by different types of survey: broad-band imaging, spectroscopic observations and narrow-band imaging. In particular I will be looking at the future possibilities for faint galaxy work provided by forthcoming, innovative, NIR instrumentation being developed for the next generation of 8m telescopes.
