Chad Carpenter born ca. 1968 is an American cartoonist best known for his comic panel Tundra. Carpenter launched the strip in the Anchorage Daily News in his home state of Alaska in 1991. Since then he has self-syndicated it to over 330 newspapers an unusually high amount for strips in self-syndication. A comic strip is a sequence of drawings arranged in interrelated panels to display brief humor or form a narrative often serialized with text in balloons and captions. From Nature's Favorite Newspaper Comic Strip! Created in 1991 Tundra is published on a daily basis always in one of two formats: Either a single-panel gag comic or a three-panel strip with regular characters and more complex humor. This alternation is similar to that used in Mother Goose and Grimm and Non Sequitur. Unlike those strips Tundra tends to deal with wildlife and the outdoors; its humor appeals to all demographics young & old. Tundra also occasionally uses reader-submitted ideas. Since 2007 the strip has been syndicated internationally by King Features Syndicate. It now appears in newspapers in the United States Canada Jamaica Germany Switzerland Sweden and Trinidad and Tobago. He has published and sold 20 Tundra books and has also produced extensive amounts of other Tundra-branded merchandise. In May 2008 Tundra was named the best newspaper panel of 2007 by the National Cartoonists Society. In August 2008 Carpenter was presented with a legislative citation honoring him as Alaska's Cartoon Laureate. It was presented to him by Wes Keller a member of the Alaska House of Representatives.

A calendar can also mean a list of planned events such as a court calendar. Tundra and Associates and Willow Creak Press unknown

Carpenter was "the first British geographer to write on theoretical geography as distinguished from mathematical treatises on navigation or the repetition of narratives of travel . The great merits of Carpenter's treatise are his firm grasp of the relation of one part of geography to another his skilful blending of the solid part of the work of Aristotle and Ptolemy with that of the explorers and investigators of his own generation and the wholesome common-sense that dominates his reasoning.
