Abstract: We characterise the link of derivatives in measure, which are introduced in [AKR,Card,ORS] respectively by different means, for functions on the space mathbbM of finite measures over a Riemannian manifold M. For a reasonable class of functions f, the extrinsic derivative DEf coincides with the linear functional derivative DFf, the intrinsic derivative DIf equals to the L-derivative DLf, and D^If(eta)(x)= D^{L}f(eta)(x)= lim_{sdownarrow 0} frac 1 s

abla f(eta+s delta_cdot)(x) =

abla �ig{D^E f (eta)�ig}(x), (x,eta)in M imesmathbb M, where abla is the gradient on M, deltax is the Dirac measure at x, and D^Ef(eta)(x):= limlimits_{sdownarrow 0} frac { f(eta+s delta_x)-f(eta)} s, xin M is the extrinsic derivative of f at etainmathbbM. This gives a simple way to calculate the intrinsic or L-derivative, and is extended to functions of probability measures. %This provides a simple way to calculate the intrinsic/Lions derivative.
