Dear R community,
 
I compare mean monthly body temperature between two age classes of turtles 
overwintering underground. 
 
lm(body_tem ~ Month*Year*Age_Class)
TukeyHSD(aov(body_tem ~ Month*Year*Age_Class, a))
 
The Tukey HSD as well as the planned contrasts method showed significant 
differences between the two age classes, but insignificant differences between 
the two age classes at the same levels of months. 
 
In the opposite, using a t-test for comparison of independent means (i.e. 
without using the ANOVA) it demonstrated insignificant differences between the 
two age classes. What result is correct?
 
Thanks,
Julia
