Abstract
We calculate and resum a perturbative expansion of nuclear enhanced power corrections to the structure functions measured in deeply inelastic scattering of leptons on a nuclear target. Our results for the Bjorken -, - and -dependence of nuclear shadowing in and the nuclear modifications to , obtained in terms of the QCD factorization approach, are consistent with the existing data. We demonstrate that the low- behavior of these data and the measured large longitudinal structure function point to a critical role for the power corrections when compared to other theoretical approaches.
