Flickering in inventory near waterfalls

Problem

When standing near waterfalls, black stripes appear on items in the inventory, and they sometimes flicker. Out of the starting items when running coc whiterun in the main menu, the book is by far the most pronounced, followed by the lockpick. The problem is much less pronounced with the rest of the items.

Possible cause

Disclaimer: I don't know anything about CS, not the internals, not really the settings.

As far as I can tell, this is caused by the Shore Wetness parameter of the Wetness Effects feature. Lowering it makes the problem less pronounced, lowering to 0 fixes the problem. Raising the parameter makes it worse.
