Users wanting to use a semi-distributed (SD) lag model should provide valid \code{Qupstream}, \code{LengthHydro}, and \code{BasinAreas} parameters. Each upstream sub-catchment is described by an upstream flow time series (one column in \code{Qupstream} matrix), a distance between the downstream outlet and the upstream inlet (one item in \code{LengthHydro}) and an area (one item in \code{BasinAreas}).
The order of the columns or of the items should be consistent for all these parameters. \code{BasinAreas} should contain one extra information (stored in the last item) which is the area of the downstream sub-catchment.
Upstream flows that are not related to a sub-catchment such as a release or withdraw spot are identified by an area equal to \code{NA} and an upstream flow expressed in m3/time step instead of mm/time step.
Please note that the use of SD lag model require to use the \code{\link{RunModel}} function instead of \code{\link{RunModel_GR4J}} or the other \code{RunModel_*} functions.
