oneDay_larvaDM_stochastic_Patch function

Stochastic Larva Death and Pupation

The daily number of larvae surviving is drawn from a binomial distribution, where survival probability is given by [REMOVE_ME]$(1-\mu_{aq}) * F(L) [REMOVE_ME_2]$. F(L), the density dependence is calculated as [REMOVE_ME]$F(L[t])=\Bigg(\frac{\alpha}{\alpha+\sum{\overline{L[t]}}}\Bigg)^{1/T_l} [REMOVE_ME_2]$. See parameterizeMGDrivE for how these parameters are derived. Pupation has no parameters, so the final day of larvae naturally enter the pupal state.
