Scientific paper

The Red-Sequence Cluster Surveys (RCS-1 and RCS-2) are large optical imaging surveys designed to create well-characterized catalogs of galaxy clusters up to z˜1. The main goals for the surveys are to use cluster abundance to constrain cosmological paramters and to create a large sample of clusters for the study of cluster galaxy evolution. We describe some recent results on galaxy evolution using cluster samples defined from the 90 sq.~deg RCS-1. We also describe briefly the recently completed RCS-2, which is a 1000 sq.~deg survey carried out using the one-deg^2 MegaCam on the CFHT in z', i', r', and g' bands, designed to obtain a sample of of several 10^4 clusters up to z˜1.
