The duality between QCD perturbative series and power corrections recently conjectured by Narison and Zakharov is analyzed. We propose to study correlations between both contributions as a diagnostics tool. A very strong correlation between perturbative and nonperturbative contributions is observed for several observables at zero and at finite temperature supporting the validity of the dual description.
