ependent on the number of larvae in the environment:
$$F(L[t])=\Bigg(\frac{\alpha}{\alpha+\sum{\overline{L[t]}}}\Bigg)^{1/T_l}$$
where \(\alpha\) represents the strength of the density-dependent process.
This parameter  is calculated with:
$$\alpha=\Bigg( \frac{1/2 * \beta * \theta_e * Ad_{eq}}{R_m-1} \Bigg) * \Bigg( \frac{1-(\theta_l / R_m)}{1-(\theta_l / R_m)^{1/T_l}} \Bigg)$$
in which \(\beta\) is the species' fertility in the absence of gene-drives,
\(Ad_{eq}\) is the adult mosquito population equilibri
