Artifacts are visible when moving and viewing Alpha Clipped Geometry in front of Volumetric Clouds
How to reproduce:

2. Import the “PalmTree.unitypackage“ into the project
3. Add the “Assets/Trees/Palm2/Palm_Desktop_Color.png“ texture onto a new Plane Game Object
4. Enable the Plane GameObject’s Shader > Surface Options > Alpha Clipping in the Inspector
5. Enable Edit > Project settings > Quality > HDRP > Lighting > Volumetrics > Volumetric Clouds
6. Add a “Volumetric Clouds“ override in the “Sky and Fog Volume“ GameObject in the Inspector
7. Pan around the Plane Game Object in the Scene view

Please see this thread where I created a detailed video that shows a similar (but maybe not exactly the same) case where black noisy spots become visible in certain conditions (explained clearly in the thread) https://discussions.unity.com/t/black-flickering-noise-near-alpha-clipped-edges-when-volumetric-clouds-with-ghosting-reduction-is-enabled/1635942
