We use the nCTEQ analysis framework to investigate nuclear parton distribution functions (nPDFs) in the region of large $x$ and intermediate-to-low $Q$, with special attention to recent JLab deep inelastic scattering data on nuclear targets. This data lies in a region which is often excluded by $W$ and $Q$ cuts …
