Description
We analyze within the JAM framework the impact on unpolarized parton distributions of heavy-flavor production measurements in deep inelastic scattering. In particular, we investigate the recent combined results of inclusive and heavy-flavor production cross sections at HERA, which impose additional constraints on the gluon and the sea-quark distributions at low $x$.
