Yes it is.

In the file grille.f, look for the comment "Association of 
conductivity/capicity on different layers of materiels".

In the following "DO" loop, you have the value for KS(k) that is set. 
You have 4 values available: Asphalt, crushed rock, concrete and deep 
soil. Those values correspond to the Table 1 in the METRo publication 
(CS(K) is the Volumetric capacity). Units for conductivity are W/(K*m).

You can change them and recompile the fortran code (the do_macadam 
script in the "script" directory).

Let us know if you have better performance with other values.
