Calculate $\theta_{st}$, density-independent survival probability, given
by: $$\theta_{st}=(1-\mu_{st})^{T_{st}}$$

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)
