generationPopGrowthRate

Adult mortality rate, $\mu_{ad}$

adultMortality

Number of eggs per oviposition for wild-type females, $\beta$

fertility

Vector of lengths of aquatic stages, $T_{e}, T_{l}, T_{p}$

aquaticStagesDuration

Calculate $\mu_{l}$, the larval mortality, given by
$$\mu_l=1-\Bigg( \frac{R_m * \mu_{ad}}{1/2 * \beta * (1-\mu_m)} \Bigg)^{\frac{1}{T_e+T_l+T_p}}$$

Provides a model designed to be a reliable testbed where various gene
drive interventions for mosquito-borne diseases control. It is being developed to
accommodate the use of various mosquito-specific gene drive systems within a
population dynamics framework that allows migration of individuals between patches
in landscape. Previous work developing the population dynamics can be found in Deredec et al.
(2001) <doi:10.1073/pnas.1110717108> and Hancock & Godfray (2007) <doi:10.1186/1475-2875-6-98>,
and extensions to accommodate CRISPR homing dynamics in Marshall et al. (2017)
<doi:10.1038/s41598-017-02744-7>.
