Taking this a step further, there was a paper in the AAPG Stochastic Modeling and Geostatistics Volume entitled "The Visualization of Spatial Uncertainty" (R Mohan Srivastava) which proposes the use of probability field simulation to generate dynamic animations of different realizations. I have yet to see it being implemented in commercial software, although in concept I can see the benefit of having something like this to illustrate the "equiprobable" realizations. The idea was to generate smooth transitions of successive "frames" by sampling from adjacent columns of a set of probability values, for a movie-like effect.
