AB - <jats:p><p><span>Electric fields (<strong>E</strong>) play a fundamental role in facilitating the exchange of energy between the electromagnetic fields and the changed particles within a plasma. </span>Decomposing <strong>E</strong> into the contributions from the different terms in generalized Ohm's law, therefore, provides key insight into both the nonlinear and dissipative dynamics across the full range of scales within a plasma. Using the unique, high&#8208;resolution, multi&#8208;spacecraft measurements of three intervals in Earth's magnetosheath from the Magnetospheric Multiscale mission, the influence of the magnetohydrodynamic, Hall, electron pressure, and electron inertia terms from Ohm's law, as well as the impact of a finite electron mass, on the turbulent electric field<strong> </strong>spectrum are examined observationally for the first time. The magnetohydrodynamic, Hall, and electron pressure terms are the dominant contributions to <strong>E</strong> over the accessible length scales, which extend to scales smaller than the electron gyroradius at the greatest extent, with the Hall and electron pressure terms dominating at sub&#8208;ion scales. The strength of the non&#8208;ideal electron pressure contribution is stronger than expected from linear kinetic Alfv&#233;n waves and a partial anti&#8208;alignment with the Hall electric field is present, linked to the relative importance of electron diamagnetic currents within the turbulence. The relative contributions of linear and nonlinear electric fields scale with the turbulent fluctuation amplitude, with nonlinear contributions playing the dominant role in shaping <strong&am
