Title: Extragalactic VLBI surveys in the MeerKAT era,
Abstract: The past decade has seen significant advances in cm-wave VLBI extragalactic
observations due to a wide range of technical successes, including the increase
in processed field-of-view and bandwidth. The future inclusion of MeerKAT into
global VLBI networks would provide further enhancement, particularly the
dramatic sensitivity boost to >7000 km baselines. This will not be without its
limitations, however, considering incomplete MeerKAT band overlap with current
VLBI arrays and the small (real-time) field-of-view afforded by the phased up
MeerKAT array. We provide a brief overview of the significant contributions
MeerKAT-VLBI could make, with an emphasis on the scientific output of several
MeerKAT extragalactic Large Survey Projects.
