Two CNM effects are of particular importance: the shadowing of the initial parton distributions (PDF) due to the nuclear environment and the nuclear absorption of the $c\bar{c}$-pair. Recent theoretical works~\cite{CSM-upgrade,Upsilon-LHC,next-paper-JPhi} have emphasized that the production mechanism of the $J/\psi$ is not {\it via} a $2 \to 1$ Drell-Yan like process. This modifies the way to compute the nuclear shadowing~\cite{first-extrinsic-paper}. We will present our results in $dA$ and $AA$ collisions at RHIC energy~\cite{first-extrinsic-paper}, using several parametrizations of the nuclear PDF~\cite{paper-nPDF-comparison,second-extrinsic-paper}, and including the $p_T$-dependence of CNM effects up to intermediate values of $p_T$, which are not accessible in the usual studies. \vspace{8pt} \bibliographystyle{unsrt} \begin{thebibliography}{6} \bibitem{CSM-upgrade}H.~Haberzettl and J.~P.~Lansberg, \textit{Phys.
