rtPupalMortality: tsetse pupal mortality

In AndySouth/rtsetse: simulating tsetse fly populations

Description

rtPupalMortality applies pupal mortality once in the pupal period.
Same rate for males and females (as in Hat-Trick).
Initially this was called for each sex, but because density dependence needs to know about both sexes I changed so that both are done in same function call.
!Later I may need to pass vegetation type to this or another function that modifies vital rates before passing.

Usage

rtPupalMortality(vPupaF, vPupaM, pMort = 0.25, propDD = 0.25,
  iCarryCapPupa = NA)

Arguments

vPupaF	a vector of female pupae by age
vPupaM	a vector of male pupae by age
pMort	a mortality probability
propDD	proportion of mortality that is density dependent
iCarryCapPupa	Carrying Capacity as an integer

Value

a list of vectors of pupae by age (vPupaF & vPupaM)
