Predicted number counts of galaxies brighter than apparent magnitude ﹩{m}_{{\rm{}}\mathrm{UV}}﹩ (rest-frame UV) per square degree for a range of redshifts based on our model LFs. We plot the cumulative number counts including the boost from gravitational lensing magnification bias (Wyithe et al. 2011; Mason et al. 2015) as solid lines, and without the magnification bias effect (dashed lines). We plot the estimated coverage of future surveys as shaded regions: 3 mock JWST surveys detailed in Section 3.3 and the WFIRST High-latitude Survey (Spergel et al. 2015). The calculated number counts are given in Table 2.
