Iterate all files in linux server through built-in Python code at PC windows machine

The problem is as follows:

I built my python code in windows pc to analysis hundred thousands of files. Later, I found that the data are all located at Linux server (remote server). Now, I need to read the files from specific directory at Linux server. I could read one file 'data.nc'
But I have many files inside this directory
Could you please give me hints to iterate all files inside the given directory

What I have tried:

Python

import paramiko
import os
import xarray as xc

ssh = paramiko.SSHClient()
ssh.set_missing_host_key_policy(paramiko.AutoAddPolicy())
ssh.connect(hostname='xxxxxxx', username='xxxxxx', password='xxxxxxx', port='22')
print('Connect to server')
sftp_client = ssh.open_sftp()

sftp_client.chdir('/home/abow/')


remote_file = sftp_client.open('data.nc')

try:
    ds = xc.open_dataset(remote_file)
    print(ds)

finally:
    remote_file.close()
# ssh.close()
# print('the connection is closed')

"I got the error No such file or directory"
What exactly do you think anyone here can do about that? You need to check:
1. Does that directory actually exist on the server?
2. Do you have access to it via sftp?

Yes the file is available. However, I will reformulate the question now because I could read the file, but now I need to iterate inside the directory to read all files.
