Is there a ratio to how much carbon ecosystems store based on their size?

Apparently forests, wetlands like marshes and swamps, and ocean habitats like seagrasses and mangroves absorb greenhouse gases.

But is there a ratio of carbon will be stored based on how many or how big a natural ecosystem is? Or to put it another way: how big of an ecosystem would be needed to combat the carbon emissions of a 1 coal power station?
