Deterministic Larva Death and Pupation

Description

Calculate the number of larvae surviving from day to day, given by:

\overline{L_{[t-1]}} * (1-\mu_{aq}) * F(L)

. F(L), the density dependence is calculated as

F(L[t])=\Bigg(\frac{\alpha}{\alpha+\sum{\overline{L[t]}}}\Bigg)^{1/T_l}

. See parameterizeMGDrivE for how these parameters are derived. Pupation has no parameters, so the final day of larvae naturally enter the pupal state.
